A couple of Mallard Hens landing in the tidal pond at Valdez, Alaska. Even though they were landing, the photo looks like they’re racing!

All that spray caught in a frozen moment is wonderful.
Excellent, Gary. The spray is awesome. I like the placement of the two ducks in the frame. You might look at flipping this horizontally. My left to right predisposition really wants to move that way in this image.
The flying water, sharp ducks and nice greens come together very well here Gary. The splashing in the larger view is awesome.
A nice duck race, Gary. You really stopped the action nicely. Love the water spray.
Excellent color and action. The splashes are done quite well. I like the layered effect between the leaves and the smooth water with its reflection and the ducks in between.
