The fast shutter speed has its effect on freezing the action so well, resulting in such wonderful details and stunning vivid colours.
Congrats for the BIP.

Just a great shot all around Marcus, reminds me of Yamil's shot. Looks great, beautiful bird and with the reflection and colour of the water, simply outstanding. Very nice as are all the rest of your bird photos, especially the ones in flight, what a great talent you have to grab those. Best regards. Art.

fantastic image, Marcus. The water is so smooth it is mirror like, and the reflection is perfect. great colors and details. I think I like this one a bit more than the other, but I don't know why... both are great.

Hi Marcus,
Both are wonderful. But I will go along with the BIP award and say this one is better :)
I think the colour of the duck shows a bit better with the blue water. I would almost bet there is no differece between the two ducks. It's just that the blue seems to compliment the duck better.

Ps I saw some Harriers today, from a distance. No shots. But I got some fairly close up of a Broad Shouldered Hawk perched in a tree. I may post one later.

Hi Marcus,
Excellent pose and great capture Marcus.
They both are great shots, but this one looks much better, at least in my computer.
The calm blue background makes the colors in the Wood Duck stand out.
Take care buddy and hope to see you soon.
Yamil

Hey marcus... hmm tough choice both great photographs, it would depend if you like a warm or cool background for this really hot or really cool bird LOL! excellent exposure on your duck.
but i think i like the blue water. tried getting up early to hit TI/BB, i'm kinda in the middle, it's 630am and kinda late to leave.....

~~GRIN~~ Marcus... Which way is up???...

An absolutely beautiful bird... The colours and markings are brilliant... The clarity perfect... reflection amazing...

Worth the extra carricular activities for sure ;) ...

Onie... PS... Will be putting exactly the same comment on the first upload... ~~GRIN~~ but not sure because the reflections are so perfect whether you have two or four ducks...

Onie...
