Eb - Beautiful colors on this bird. The mallards around here are brilliant. Nice capture.

Thanks, Kerry. The light was reasonable, late afternoon, diffuse, overcast. However, even under exposing by two stops or more, the white feathers would blow out. They are amazingly reflective! I am not sure how one can get this shot straight out with digital. Usually I resort to HDR but such is not possible with a moving subject.

Nice Eb... I like the composition as well. Looks like the light might have been a bit tough...

Very nice wildlife shot, Eb! I like the way you've shown some of the habitat, too.
