At one of our local ponds, same location as the Bufflehead female I posted. But this one is a lot closer and this is probably 60% of full frame. Taken on a bright, sunny day with a lot of wind and gusts up to 30 mph.

Is this a composite: No  
Iso-640, 400+1.4 X, F4 .5, 2000th, A7r4, handheld, 60% of full frame

Excellent detail, David, and I like the rough water. The way the water drop is swayed out by the wind tells a story in itself.

Hi David, very nice image. You did a great job on the exposure and the colors are terrific especially on the back of the bird’s head. Fine details. The water drop add a lot. I also like the look of the lily pads in the water. A fine image.
