Scott the large picture shows this off beautifully, great skating action with smashing colours on the duck.

Perfect capture of the landing, nicely set just off-centre in the frame and excellent choice of dof to get the water slipping away into the distance, so setting off the duck beautifully. Fine image !!

You nails this one Scott. I really like the water color. Well done.

Really nice light here and you captured the landing skid perfectly. Sharp details and a very complimentary background. I like the low angle too.

Great landing shot, Scott. A perfect three-point landing. Nice work on the colors and the iridescence, too.

Nice timing. These guys can be difficult to expose properly especially with a dark background, but you nailed it. I really like how the drake stands out from the darker background.
