    Beautiful detail and colors Herb! How in the world did you manage to get so close, even with the 500? Good job!

    Herb:

    A beautiful woodie.

    Nice head angle, sharp.

    The light was difficult here. High contrast with slightly blown highlights on white of bill, neck and torso. Partly because of the contrast, it looks a bit oversharpened on my monitor.

    The background is complimentary. I would like a little more room in front for the duck to move into.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Strong light, tough for working the birds. Still managed a good image Herb. I love the colors on this duck. Well done. :)
