Eider in last light

[Krijn Trimbos]

Took this last weekend. I had half a day to look for subjects and at the end of the day I found this beautiful female in a little harbour just outside the open sea.

Hope you like it,

What's not to like Krijn! Great light, excellent sharpness, and good eye contact. I might try a little CCW rotation.

Funny looking duck Krjin! Love the light, detail, pose, comp and colors, ambient looks nice as well, Maybe a bit of CCW rotation needed? Still, Congratulations!

Great light, details and colors. Another vote for CCW rotation.

Another vote for some CCW rotation. Where did you find such a willing eider? Any luck on the males? Great looking specimen buddy!
