Ducks at Dusk

Mallard duck

Shot this first one after the one below and enjoyed seeing the way the sunset shows on their wings.















I really liked the way this duck looks so smooth and still while he is on the pond. But by the way he was moving right before I shot the picture he must really be at it under the surface. I read that somewhere once and thought this was a good visual of it. Plus I enjoyed the color and crispness of the image.
