Lake Geneva, Switzerland
D810    300mm f2.8 G ED VR2 x tc 1.4 series 3
f/10.0 ISO 500   1/1600 s    EV -0.33   WBA     Handheld
Photoshop CS6   Roughly 8.5% of full frame

The problem was getting close enough to photograph various dabbling ducks. I took this shot of a Tufted Duck from a precarious perch on a very narrow access quay. I like the bird’s jaunty, optimistic look.

Thanks for viewing
Your crits and nits are most welcome

Excellent detail, David, especially for such a large crop. The exposure of the blacks and whites is superb.

Very perky looking duck David. The water is gorgeous, but the duck seems a little centered in the frame for me. Love that eye.
