Don't you just love the pattern in her feathers?

[Amy Spada]

Yes, I do and I like the movement of water she is making too.

[Jessica]

this is beautiful! and I agree, love the movement of the water! great shot!

[Milanie]

What a wonderful shot - the detail of the feathers, the reflection of the head, the movement of the water, the lighting on his back which brings out those feathers - even the drop of water under the beak - beautiful! FAV

[Kimberly Doerr]

What a lovely little duck...

[Allison Maltese]

@milaniet Thanks. It needs a little fill light on the front, but with wildlife that isn't always possible, and I didn't want to fall into the river!

Love everything about this shot. Great clarity, patterns in the feather and reflection.
