Lovely water texture, details and incoming posture. The water droplets are a bonus. Great BIF shot.

Merry Christmas Hugh, yesterday I told a good friend of mine to take a look at your flight shots and the brilliant results you are getting with this combo as he is in the market for new zoom lens to go with his d500 that he got yesterday.

All the best.

You sure are nailing the ducks with that combo!! Nice flight angle and I always love a few drops of water falling from the recent take-off.
The ducks are finally starting to come in over the last week or two so maybe I will see you out there this season. Nice shooting!!

The tones in the water compliment the Wigeon perfectly, Hugh. Terrific image.
