At my favorite lake, I caught this pair puttering along in the warm afternoon light. Processed with Lightroom, Photoshop and Lightzone. Comments and critiques welcome.

While this image is excellent and includes both the drake and the hen, I still prefer the single image of the hen previously posted. There's just something about it that strongly appeals to me.

Sweet image, Jerry.  I love the golden glow on the water and the poses work well together.
