The Male Display

[Kiran Poonacha]

This is another one from my try on ducks. This is a Northern Shoveler Male

Spec: 1/3200, F 7.1, ISO 400, -1/3

canon 40D + 500mm + 1.4TC

The low angle works really well here Kiran and I quite like the droplets behind. Composition and quality are both good too.

[Gary Esman]

Excellent shot all around! Got to love that eye. Nice capture of the color on the head! Congrats!

[Randy Stout]

Kiran:

Very nicely captured. Around here, shoveler's aren't the most cooperative of fellows, so really appreciate this one.

Nice techs, colors, BG.

Kiran,

I like your composition with the pose of the wings, and the low angel here. The colors are very striking indeed..

Kiran,

Not much else to say other than I love it. Even the under the wings got some details. ;)

[Morkel Erasmus]

stunning shot Kiran - pin sharp with stunning colours and the low angle puts it over the top

[Aidan Briggs]

This is just great. Lovely low angle, BG, action, HA, exposure....just about everything. I might try just a tiny crop off the bottom.

Well Done!!

My eye wants to see the tiniest bit of ccw, browser scroll seems to confirm this. Other than that, a most pleasing image filled with color and interest.

[James Salywoda]

Excellent exposure control. Gorgeous colors through out the frame.

[Axel Hildebrandt]

Great angle, sharpness, eye contact and setting and you handled the harsh light well.

[Ofer Levy]

Stunning!!! Perefect in every way. If anything maybe a tiny CCW rotation.
