Nice, Karl...I wonder if we were there at the same time? I went back a few more times, looking for more and more and more...an addictive duck, to be sure...
Great HA for sure. Very nice job with techs Karl.
Sweet head angle Karl but I might straighten this a touch.
I wonder what the result would be if you took this at a lower angle.

Thanks Artie.
I was sitting on a foam pad right at the edge of the water, leaning back so I was able to look into the viewfinder
while my feet were partially in the water. I used the tripod stretched out at the lowest position.
Going down is OK with me. Getting up I need help as people noticed it before. But my wife is always with me.![]()
Thanks for the info Karl. I need to get on Jack for being lazy.

very nice low angle and sharp details, I tend to agree with Artie that head parallel to the back of camera is the nicest pose for these guys but you still did a good job.
next milestone will be sweet warm light to bring out those colors and head parallel to the back of camera ;)

The low-angle police! Forgive me, Karl, for invading your post...I'll explain myself in my own post...
Hi Karl, good low perspective, and I do like the detail and colours on this fellow - pops so well from the semi high key water BG.
Karl, nice portrait with lots of details and good balanced comp. well done.
