    James, this is brilliant. Great flight angle, tack sharp, and just pops from the BG so well. Congrats on an outstanding image.

    Very nicely controlled exposure, there is detail throughout and good clarity.

    I've never seen a Gadwall Duck, and this is a really beautiful image James.

    Good work and thanks for posting this,

    Gorgeous light, great details, good BG, great flight angle and lovely colours. The light angle wasn't ideal but I would take this in a heartbeat. Well done man!
