 Used my telephoto lense on this one. Shot at sun down on a still pond in Central Park New York. I got several good shots that day but this is the best one.

Typical light adjustments but this is pretty close to the real thing.

Great detail in the duck and really nice lighting. I would have liked to see his whole body though.

I like the water droplets on the head , show's good detail.
The only thing is see wrong is to tight of a crop at the back. But it is a great shot.
