    Default Barrow's Goldeneye pair

    I took advantage today of the light and the fact that I had both species of Goldeneye to choose from at my local bay.
    Not the easiest of birds to get right--but this is coming the closest of what I have right now.

    Hey Bonnie, Very well done. Wish for just a bit more room below the reflection (but I know how hard that is when working with the 2X). Later and love, artie

    Great to have both sharp and I like the serene mood, details and exposure control.

    You're kidding me! This has got to be a Duck Stamp painting instead of a photo. :) Great job.
