Bonus points to those who can ID the ducks This was such a fun outing, at first I got two butts up in air, then three....then five! All ined up in the plane of focus too, which was good as stopping down spoiled the smooth background more than I liked (I tried). Anyhow, not sure when I'll get that opportunity again, especially that these are not mallards (oops, that is a clue....)

Well caught Dan I like as presented. Not too sure about your ducks, they don't seem to be very large so my guess is Teal or Widgeon.

 

[Daniel Cadieux]

Thanks a stack Jon! You were pretty darn warm on your guess - these are Green-winged Teals

 

[Jonathan Ashton]

Dan there's hope for me yet!

Super fun frame Daniel. Very unique and creative IMO.

You always do a fine job with tones and colors and this has your 'flare' in it, despite not seeing any faces or eyes.
