Hi Scott,

I like the pose with the webbed foot up for a scratch. There's a little bit of noise present in the water visible in the larger version. Other than that, the specs seem to be right on and it will make a beautiful print :toast: .....................Jim

Nice looking duck, good detail, and a cool pose. I agree there's a hint of noise in the water–a round of NR should take care of it easily enough.

Not a duck you see posted here very often. I've never seen one in the wild, but have always thought they were one of the more attractive species. I like the foot action. Give the image some uniqueness and character. The techs look god, but there is a little noise in the water (easily handled). Nice capture.

Noce moment of capture. There is a bit of noise and some selective nr might be helpful. :wavey:

Nice redhead image. I like the raised foot and detail in the larger version. Perhaps some noise reduction on the background?
