Quacks and ripples
Uploaded: May 01, 2004
f8, 1/250 sec., lens focal length 300mm., 04/30/2004. An emotive mallard. The light was right to capture the iridescent colors and soft ripples on a smooth lake.

Nicely done, Richard! #513299Richard H. Hahn May 01, 2004
Thanks to all for the kind comments. This mallard was sounding the alarm to the other ducks. A fox was ten feet away on the beach. So, my image capture was aided by the fact the mallard was distracted by a predator and was quacking with fervor. #513519Alisha May Furbish May 01, 2004
