Caught this little drake in a nice pool of fall color.  R5, 200-800mm@707mm, F9, 1/2000, ISO 1600.  Thanks for any comments or suggestions, Dave

Very painterly look to the image. The B/G is awash with complimentary colours. He is a pretty boy.

Gorgeous water, perfect head angle. Perhaps a bit on the bright side and would love a lower shooting angle but a very nice shot of this guy.

David, Now that's a lot of colors! On my monitor, it looks like you could bring the exposure down just a tad?
