Harvey,
You did a great job photographing the water around the drake. I would love to have such a nice blue tone in many of my waterfowl shots. Free of reflective glare, perfectly exposed . . . just a great job overall!


"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

Awfully pretty shot!

Thanks very much, Tom. I appreciate your comments. For the record, I pulled the contrast back a bit in post, which helped a lot.

Thanks a lot, Jim. I think they call them Goldeneye because of the color of the bill. ;)

Thanks, good buddy. These little dudes and the Buffleheads can be a real exposure challenge.
