This is very lovely.
I like the soft colors of the background. Good composition. Nice focus and clarity on the duck. Very unusual bill on that guy.

She is gorgeous Annie!

You have a way of taking images and making them your own. Wonderful details give way to your perfectly executed background. This has a tonal quality that is mesmerizing and surreal.

Beautifully done.

Comment from JIRINA


Certainly a nice job converting a dead duck to one that looks real, and swimming among weeds. colours are well blended and clear. I don.t know how much you changed on the duck, but looks like a European Wigeon.

Comment from Sange


It seems we posted the same kind of duck and titled it the same!
What you have here is a GORGEOUS
Plumed Whistling Duck! I have only seen the Black-Bellied Whistling Duck and the Fulvous Whistling-Duck. Yours has the beautiful plume feathers.
This is OUTSTANDING bird photography! Clarity, focus and details are superb.
Your magical edit of layers and creative artistry make this beautiful Duck shine!
Well done Cara!

What a good edit on your very pretty duck. I am not able to ID it either, hope someone does for you. Very good composition, focus and frame to show the cute details.

Well, that is the last of my six's. Amazing technique and creation of this duck. I love the colors, depth, and expression on his face. Great job on all!

Comment from Doris1022


it is really pretty, seems to be young or a female? did anyone know the type?

are the feathers on the bottom natural?

love the dappled beak. and great work on the background. the only suggestion I might add would be to put a bit of color in the background not much just a touch. per haps lavender ribbons?
