Hello everyone. While out shooting some ring necked ducks this beauty swam to me. She let take a few pics and then swam away. Hope you enjoy. C&C welcomed.
She is a beauty, like the rich chestnut colors, nice definition in the feathers, eye, low angle and complimentary BG.
Well framed.
I might clean up the tiny speck of white on the right side of head, and perhaps run a linear burn or multiply selection on the whites by the bill, to see if you can tease out anymore detail.
Very nice IQ and the eye really pops...I like the color and the light looks great. Pastel colors on the water really work for me..The whites around the bill don't bug me
Thank you everyone for all your feedback, very much appreciated.
