Very cool poses and composition, Rick. Was this a large crop? There seems to be an awful lot of noise in the larger image, and I'm not sure why.

Excellent pose on this couple Rick, it does look a little noisy in the background but still a very good capture. :toast:

Cool pose and image, Rick. I would clone the bright spot above the male's head.

Their poses are really great. Some of the darker spots on the birds could be lightened a little, and that bright spot behind the drake's head could be cloned. How nice to see this pair together! Sharon
