Beautiful view of these precious wetlands and the birds who rely on them. Very nice composition, tones and detail here and I appreciate the description you gave us too. Great shot, Debra!

Thanks very much Heather, it is always nice to stumble across Jess like this while out for a drive.

Jane LeBlanc

I agree with Yves. You have the 'thirds' of the photo done beautifully. Love the whole scene.

Debra Plett

Thanks very much Jane, I love finding sceneries like this while out for a drive.

Yves Langlois

Wow! I love the composition on that shot Debra. The dark green and the contrasting golden field is great. The nice pond in the foreground with white birds in action make it for a very nice scenery.

Debra Plett

Thank you very much Yves, your feedback is always appreciated. The overall scenery is what I really liked about this image as well. Further back into the field was a barn but I could not get it into the composition unless I left out the water and birds.

Photography is often a hard choice between two beautyful things

Description
In southwest Manitoba, between the towns of Ninette and Killarney there is quite a few wetland ponds bordering between farmland and highway 18 north. A wide range of wildlife live in these ponds and this is truly wonderful to experience.
