Wood Duck

[Bruce Gove]

This bird was tooling around a pond at the Hyatt in Honolulu. Lots of neat birds there that aren't particularly concerned about people gawking and making photos.:D Love the colors - he appears to be stretching the right wing.

Cheers,

Bruce

Excellent Bruce !!! Not an easy bird to photograph !!

Good overall exposure and managed a good bg, low angle sure helped You had a great trip !!!!

[Dave Mills]

Beautiful subject and nice exposure. I would crop about halfway down the rock backround. It will make the duck look much stronger....

A beautiful wood duck......and around here almost impossible to get as they are so skittish. Nice job on the exposure and framing of the image. Well done.

I have to agree with Lana. What a beautiful looking duck. Seem a little dark but you did well with the low angle.
