Hello Beverley,
A superb capture of an Asian species of duck called the Spot-billed Duck (Anas poechilorhyncha).
The POV shows its features with excellent sharpness, colours and a great water movement around it. It is a beautiful species that you show very well and you can just see the spot at the tip of its bill.
Thanks for sharing this beauty, a species that I have seen in Goa but could not photograph.
Kind regards,
Ivan

Hi Beverley!

Indeed, it's nice! Even more than that, it's a real beauty. I'm impressed by the clarity and the sharpness as both reveal rich and magnificent details. The picture is simple, yet so pleasant. I also like the water surface with the reflection of the light. I prefer this to the artificial effect of a polarizing filter.

Let me by this occasion also thank you with all my heart for the encouraging words on my last posting!

Kind regards

Hi, Beverley.
I also am amazed with brilliance of the scene. It is really superb as well as your picture. I do not know what is reproduced better. Both water surface with charming waves and ripples and beautiful duck are reproduced fantastically with refined taste and highest skill. All is the best at this shot. My heartfelt congratulations on so wonderful masterpiece. Bravo.
Yours Alexei.
