    Default One cozy Easter duck

    Taken the other day was this one with the Canon 7D and 70-300L at 300mm. iso400, 1/1600, f5.6...I'd kept the shutter speed up so as to catch the mallards and gadwalls and happy wingflap. I'm posting this one here because of the loveliness of water, and so forth. I'll welcome your comments and suggestions. What you're seeing here accounts for approximately 75% of the original capture. Also, I adjusted the levels and sharpened al dente. Many thanks for your pious consideration...

    Perfect techs and interesting background Jack. Like the refelection too. I would go for a little tighter crop give more attention to the subject.

    The water is indeed pretty, and you have a beautiful reflection. I agree tighter crop would work well..just in case you needed someone else to say so :-)

    OK then folks. Less water is the consensus from the gadwall gallery. Thank you for taking the time!
