Very nice capture. The light looks like it was great. I think it would be interested to take a look at a pano crop for this.

I like this a lot. The larger image looks like a painting with depth. It would make a great large print if the pixels hold up. Well done.

A great look at a common duck species. Shows even the more common subjects can be photographed in a new and exciting way! I agree this would look great as a large print and a pano crop should be at least looked at. Thanks for sharing.

Basri,
This is a lovely relaxing shot. I agree with Keith's request for a pano. Bet that would look great. :toast:
