    Default Picture-Perfect Landing

    I photographed this Wood Duck coming in for a landing the day after NANPA with Artie, Linda Robbins, and Gary Rouleau. The Albuquerque Zoo is a great place to photograph Woodies!

    Great timing, details and pose. Does it need a bit CCW rotation?

    This is a slight crop Axel. I tried playing around with rotation, but like you, couldn't quite tell if rotation helped or not. So I posted it like this.

    Superb timing for the touchdown, and you have exposed the colours perfectly. Well captured Doug.
