Obligatory Duck Shot

[sparker1]

I don't think I've ever posted a duck shot before. The weedy background isn't the best, but I like the way the blue from the underside of the wing shows only in the reflection.

I like the pair together.

Looks great. The colors are bang on. I wouldn't worry about the background. This is how you found them. Nicely done

Great first duck shot! Very nice colors. The background works for the subject pair! http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gifhttp://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif

Very nice. Great detail in the feathers :D

Good to see they have these in your neck of the woods Stan. I find the beautiful, I am not sure we have this type of bird.

Great shot, the detail on the feathers really stand out.

Stan,
Glad to see you have found the hidden duck image that comes loaded into every Canon digital camera. :):):)
There are goose and Great Blue Heron shots hidden too:):)
Excellent capture.

Stan, I like the photos a lot and don't think the background is a problem. I've got to work on finding my hidden duck shots!

Thanks, fellas, for your comments and encouragement.
