    Default Black Duck

    Hi,

    This is my first post! This Black Duck was swimming with quite a few mallards, but I managed to get a shot of it by itself.

    Welcome to BPN David!

    As it is the duck is kind of lost among the active water. A lower shooting angle if at all possible would have good enough to seperate it from those waters, but what I do like from this higher angle is the view of the back feathers.. There are two bright spots above the head that would need to be cloned out. Looking forward to more!

    Welcome, David! Very nice details and eye contact. I agree that a lower angle would have helped. Keep them coming!

    Red carpet welcome, David!!!

    We'd be happy if we can help you improve your skills, we all can use some improvement, can't we? :)

    Besides a lower angle, I think you could go a little lighter. Looking forward to more!
