A White-cheeked Pintail in the place called "Pantanal Paulista", which is a place with an environment similar to Pantanal, for those who are familiar with what Pantanal is.

Jefferson,
Great look at this Pintail, the details and colors are sweet with the water droplets adding realism to the scene. The BG is not ideal but depicts the environment well. If it were mine, I would selectively lighten the eye a bit to give it more prominence.
Well Done . . . :toast:
