Good going Kerry!!! Nice detail and a look your way by the Ms Wigeon

[Alfred Forns]

Very nice capture and great wing position ... pretty bg !!!

Got one suggestion for metering ... did well here but check the bg. You are going to have a different exposure if the meter reads clouds or blue but the bird will not change since it will be in the same light ... can lead to over or under exposure. In this situation best to go manual !!!

A very nice capture indeed Kerry,
I like the wing position and the sharp details...good advise given By Mr. Forns. Looking forward to your next one...:cool:
