Such a pristine and natural view of this handsome wood duck who appears here as very much a part of his environment. Wonderful tones and detail surround him and the focus on him is perfect. Not an easy capture Yves, but a great one.. and so beautiful too.
Thank you very much for the well appreciated comments Heather. Love that picture because the beauty of the duck does not appear at first glance. The viewer must stop running and take the time to move forward in search of that beauty. He must want to see it.
Beautiful sharp focus on the duck Yves. The detail is amazing especially how the eye stands out. Well done.
It sure looks like he gave you a challenge, but good on you for getting this awesome duck in his natural environment and camouflage It is a great pic
