Mr Goosander
Follow up to my previous post. I hope you like it.

All C&C welcome.

Nikon D300 with Nikon 600/F4. 1/800 sec at F8, ISO 400, EV 0. Rested on window ledge of hide. Cropped to approx 80% and rotated slightly to improve picture.

nice image and colour just looks a tad oversharpened to me
