This is lovely, Jagdeep. The light is gorgeous and the position of the wings with the head poking out between them is just perfect. Well done.

Very nice frame. Just the slightest bit of wing blur adds a lot to this image. Love the complimentary background. One of my favorite ducks to photograph. Nicely done.

Oh my, this is absolutely gorgeous! Perfection in subject, background, colors and techs. Love it!

The lighting and colors are beautiful. I especially like the orange stripe in the wing. Well done…Jim

Killer landing photo… congrats.

Wow. This is a beautiful image of one of my favorite ducks. Sharpness in the head with some blur in the wings really gives a sense of the movement. The colors and background are wonderful. Composition spot on. What’s not to love? I wouldn’t change a thing.

Excellent color and detail. Superb wing position. I really enjoy the background.

I don’t have much to add. Duck and BG are gorgeous, and the pose is great with that full wing extension. Wish this was mine.

[David_Bogener]

Beautiful frame. Great light and detail. I like the pose with a good look at the underside of one wing and the speculum on the other. Well done.

Elegant capture and love the rich gold hues of bird and complementary bgd.
