Pretty Lady II

I couldn't resist posting another image of a female Wood Duck. This image shows the female has some bling. The iridescent feathers along the wing are pretty impressive. I like the silvery water in this shot. Processed using Photoshop CS3, NeatImage and LightZone. Comments and critiques welcome.

Nice image Jerry. Exposure, detail, color all look good to me. Congrats on a good image.

Very sweet image! Great pose with the head-turn, lovely water, fine detail and colours.
My only suggestion would be to move the duck down in the frame a bit - and thereby also eliminating that bright lower right area in the BG.
Nice image!

Jerry,
Love the feathery looking water ripples. Great color, framing, head position, and sharpness. Only nit pick is the bright spot near the lower right corner. Could be fixed pretty easily.
