Mallard duck in flight

[Dan Avelon]

I have been looking at the excellent photographs on this website for a while, I am not a professional like most of you just a hobbyist but I decided to post and learn more from the experts. Took this photo in a local park last weekend. Please help me improve

Real nice shot. I like the flight pose. Whites look good. A little more ss would have been nice to freeze more of the wing. Still a nice shot.
Well done.

I like the slightly blurred wings, gives him a sense of motion. I would move him back in the frame and maybe a touch lower, therefore giving him some space to fly into, too centered as is in my opinion
