This duck looks A LOT like our Ring-Necked Duck. The only thing ours doesn't have is the tuft. Very nice details, exposure and BG here. I may have given it a tad more room to the right and taken the white specks off of its back, but only the ones that don't look like water drops. The details in the blacks here is really oustanding. Thank you for sharing.

Exposure and sharpness look good, and you managed to bring out a tinge of colour on the face. Your subject is placed too low in the frame IMO.

The blue in the water realy makes this picture glow. I love the colors and tones. Te bird is sharp. Having more of the reflection bo the bird would have been a big plus. Great job!

Excellent exposure and sharpness. Nice low angle. Agree with Daniel about placement of the bird in the frame. BTW the title of the thread doesn't fit the image; you might want to rename the thread.

Beautiful and simple. I totally love the purple/green sheen on the head. Great plumage detail as well. Congrats! :)
