Out shooting with the new camera, I thought the light and pose was pretty good.
Nikon D7100, Nikon 300mmf4 at f6.3 1/800th of a sec at ISO 800

This is really nice Wade. I love the drakes raised rt. wing out of the side pocket and showing the iridescence of the secondary feathers. The exposure also does a wonderful job showing the greens on the head. Very nicely done and congrats with the new camera!

Magnificent. The exposure and detail are as good as it gets. You and Craig are killin' me with your brilliant avian work. Keep it up; love to see 'em.
