Very good, Jagdeep. I love the slight head turn and eye contact and the wing position works for me. While I’m sure the whites aren’t blown I’d be tempted to bring the top of the head and face down just a tiny bit.

Wonderful view of the duck! The water droplets are icing on the cake and the BG is lovely!

Hi J Rajput
The take off of this Ruddy Shellduck, shows us the rich coloring of the Shellduck. The water droplets, wing action and eye contact are great pluses to this photograph. Nice work.
