I desperately needed to take Huey for an outing, so went down to a local waterway that doesn't usually have much close by, except for some resident ducks and geese. I think this is a duck, it quacked! Huey is taking some getting used to, so I need to practice a lot!

Those are great Tina, the third shot is funny but that 1st shot is incredible, you've got fantastic detail there and well composed too, very nice.

Wonderful images, amazing clarity. And that creamy smooth BG just makes the image pop.

Checked your web site - really nice.

Super shooting as always Tina. Great IQ all the way through. The first is pretty...as if a dance pose.

Marvelous shots, Tina, with the first being my favourite. So much detail! And a pretty duck too, by the way.

Lol, well, on the second day they did, all of the first day's effort went into the bin! Thanks Craig.

I really like the exposure, fine details, and timing on the ducks, especially the last one. LOL!
