Axel, love the head turn and the eye contact. The color and markings on the duck are striking. Very nicely done.

Looks great, Axel. Nice head turn and eye contact. The wave motion makes it look three dimensional.

Sweet shot in the waves- they are so tiny and hard to get-I used to see them in Massachusetts on the coast-hard to get a good close look. Great job!

This is one among those species which is high in my wishlist. Clear eye, perfect head turn, striking colours on the bird makes it perfect. Nicely done.

Regards.

Biru.
