The golden tones on the water provide a perfect backdrop for your image of this handsome Scaup. Very nice detail, and I love the golden eye. Well done, Suresh.

Suresh, Beautiful image. My only suggestion would be to maybe trade some shutter speed for a slightly higher f number for a larger depth of field?
