Red-billed Teal
Another image from my shoot with Stu. We had a great variety of water fowl and in one direction I was able to line up a bright reflection to pursue the high-key look that I like.
Nikon D3s, Nikon 500 f4 VR

Thanks, Artie. It's been a hectic 18 months with work. Hoping to catch my breath a bit over the summer!

Great looking duck with fantastic detail! Especially like the whites on the Teals head. Can really appreciate the catch light in the eye on this one, stands out nicely. Does it need just a tad CW? TFS

Very well executed high key image, love the eye and splash of color from the bill.
Duck therapy is good for the overworked spirit.

Hi Tony, the colours of the Teal pop so well against the high key BG. Getting you down to the lower level has worked out well here, and I feel you have placed the Teal perfectly in the frame. I can see this large on one of your walls.
Inspirational work, Sir!
very nice image, I usually don't like the high-key images but this one is an exception, colors rendition and details are great

Fantastic high key image of a superb looking duck.
Excellent image. Love the high key, great detail, and wonderful reflection.
Well done.
I've never seen one of these birds before and this was a wonderful introduction to the species.
