Hi Karen,

Millie the Mallard? So they have names do they?!

Excellent timing on the pose and you've captured those striking markings beautifully too. Really very nice.

Cheers,

Lovely contrast, color and compostion.

I particularly like the contrast, in texture and color, of the water and the decking.

Great capture, I love the title, it creates a little story in the mind that the picture fulfills.

Hahaha....That is a great pose you have caught, Karan.
It is the quintessential ready-to-dive, on-your-mark posture.
Great details and light, and love those up-lifted wings and outstretched neck.

Hi Karan,
I really likes this mallard's pose!
You used a very effective POV, to show this scene with a lot of clear details.
The low light and the illumination there were remarkable.
Very good the horizontal composition.
Congatulations, thanks for share and best regards,
JM
