The ducks are slowly starting to arrive, I hope it's a good winter.

Thanks for looking.

Great frame of a not to often seen duck, especially in flight. Perfect side belly profile and a great head angle.
Two possable suggestions. A bit more room on top and to the right and I'm sure with your PP skills that you could tease a bit more details from the blacks. Sweet capture Tim.

Thanks Dave, while I appreciate the critique I disagree with pulling out anymore details out of the black,
It would give the bird a very unnatural look, and I'm confident with my calibrated monitor and my PS actions I have
preset that I have no solid blacks.
Maybe it's my posting size that omits the details from being seen?
