This is a nice shot of a very attractive duck. I've never seen one of these. Nice shot Monte!

Beatiful capture of this duck, in view larger the detail are very interesting, beautiful lighting. What kind of Duck is it ?

 

Best regards Christine

The wing pose is nice and sharp but the head is a bit out of focus though. I don't think with Canon AF you would get this problem :) :)

Excellent and elegant capture, as usual.....7/7! happy new year, my friend!!!

Wonderful. 7/7 anon. Happy new year.

Good 'start' into the new year!!! Tbo's , good light and best regards, El

Very nice landing shot! Were you tossing bread into the water? :-)

Not in this particular instance. Is that how u do it?

Bread...crackers...Purina Merganser Chow...whatever works!

Lovely capture with a beautiful light and colors. Well done. Happy New Year. Best regards.

Refrescante y divertida imagen.

Abrazo y feliz 2009.

Very nice capture Monte. Sharp bird and great water turbulence.

Happy New Year.

Great expression on this guy's face (as if birds can have an "expression"). I look forward to more of your great images in ought-nine!

Very nicely captured moment! I just with the head is little more in focus.

 

Warm Regards,
