Finally got a nice calm evening....which is very uncommon here in the North Texas winter. All C&C welcome.

Sweet! I just love your ultra-low shooting angles and smooth transition to background. Water drops a bonus.
Wow, Kaus, I'm starting to recognize your shots by the thumbnail. Love your trademark low angle, the spot-on exposure, and of course the water dribbling off the bill. Looks as if you've found a good spot on that lake and that you're using it well.

Unreal, fantastic image. I love the water droplets and great low angle TFS![]()
Along with all the other good points mentioned above Kaustubh, I like the intricate feather detail and eye contact captured here. Nice soft light also compliments the calm water. Super image.
Very nice Kaustubh. Low angle and sweet bg combine to make a beautiful image, not to mention the great techs, detail and colors. Well done.

Really like that low angle and the water coming off the bill. Great colors in the background as well.
Stunning image. The low angle, multiple background colors, great light and detail, all come together perfectly in this shot.
This is simply so beautiful and stunning, its hard to go to the next image on the board.
Exposure, details, water action, great low angle, smooth BG...all there. That pond is giving you amazing opportunities, and you are capitalizing on them.
Hi Kaustubh. I also knew who did it by a quick glance of the thumbnail, it had what is turning out to be your signature ultra-low shooting angle, as well as the great background color gradient. I like the water action around the bill. I'd go and clone out the yellow OOF leg part, but thats about it. regards~Bill
Bill, Are you recommending amputation???
KD, killer sweet on all counts as above. And yes, Gadwall drakes are all about fine feather detail.
