A beautiful picture of this colourful Wood duck drake voicing his opinion as it swim out from the darkness into the light showing off his beautifully coloured& marked plumage. The light dancing off the water's surface & ripples. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Very good entry for the contest. Great capture of this lovely little Wood duck surrounded by the ripples he's made in the water. Lighting and focus very good showing a nice clear image. Great composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

You are lucky to have one of these guys stay still for your, I have never had such luck. The clarity of this photo is so perfect. You can see every little detail on this duck. The framing and lighting are excellent as well. Thanks for sharing :)

A nice subject in somewhat difficult lighting. I like the composition although I might have tried to include the reflection. Best of luck in the contest.

He swam to the bank so couldnt get the reflection.
Comment from Linda Wetzel
He does look like he swam into the light to accommodate this portrait. It is a beautiful duck and colorful duck. I really like the pools of reflected light and the ripples in the water.

Think this would be called a mallard in our region of the UK. Your fine duck image benefits from having a good composition, its sharp and well exposed. Well done and good luck!

Thank you. Yes I saw that on google. Definitely a wood duck in Vegas.
Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Yes, I agree with you that this is the most beautiful waterfowl with its semi surreal colorful plumage design & markings!
He looks like a realistically painted wooden decoy!
So cute! Mother Nature was at her artistic peak when she created this lovely duckie!
Where can we buy a pair for pet & breeding? For sure we don't have it here in the Philippines!
Obscured illumination pops him out nicely. I believe males are more colorful than females.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.
Dynamic ripples...
