What a takeoff shot, Himadri. I really like how you positioned the duck high in the frame with the water droplets trailing below. The lighting is warm and beautiful, and the habitat provides a very natural appearance. Superb photograph.

This could be a fine art painting Himadri! Gorgeous duck and such a wonderful background, all in such sweet light.

Stunningly beautiful. Love it!

What more can you ask for in a flight shot. Nicely timed and framed in it's element! The water drops are the icing on this Gadwall.
