(a bit overcast, so had to use ISO 200...)

I swear from reading these forums that ducks are attracted to the "L" lenses... ROFL You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

Pertty good for a cheapie lens, No? Yes, it is. I really like the water drops off of the duck, and you can really make out the downy feathers on the lower lateral aspect. Great shot. Did you use a tripod?
