A nice image of a Northern Shoveler. The colors look right from my recollection from seeing this duck.

I’m not sure what time of day this was taken, Jagdeep, but it has the look of really nice golden hour light to me. The colors seem accurate for that light.

We have what look to be identical ones here. The colors look very accurate, with excellent shadow and highlight detail. As @Dennis_Plank points out, if it was warm light the white feathers would be accurately represented here as just slightly warm. Lovely water and reflection!

Very nice Jagdeep. Fine details and the colors look good to me. Nice reflection too. Well done.

The colors look pretty good, but the chestnut red might need to be desaturated slightly. It is very close to the ideal so a minor tweak may all be that is needed…Jim
