A female mallard by lake Þingvallavatn. Taken around 8 PM, using flash to try something new, althoug the result is obviously less natural..

Hello Ari,
That's what we call a superb point of view, Harry.
Your fill in was very effective here, I think.
Well done

Hello Ari,
Fun unusual POV makes this a winner. The flash is subtle enough to not be a distraction but only helps the beautiful details of the ducks plumage to be seen. tfs Richard

Hello Ari,
This is a superb low point of view of this female Mallard making this shot very interesting. Great focus on the bird, very sharp details and beautiful colours. It looks really great against the dramatic background.
Well done!
Many thanks and regards, Ulla

Bellissima immagine, ottimi POV e DOF, interessante composizione, spettacolari i riflessi provocati dal flash anche se concordo un po' meno naturali. Complimenti, Ciao Maurizio

Bonjour Ari
Très belle prise, excellente netteté et couleurs, très beau sujet, bien cadré, bonne technique de réalisation.
Amicalement Robi

I love the giant duck look. Very nice. Trevor

Great Shot. The background and the reflections in the sharply focussed eye of the mallard looks magnificient.

Hello!

This is most typical duck in Poland ( and I think that not only) but Your shot is perfectly made. Very good extremaly low POV, splendid framing and sharpness and lovely blured background.

Good shot!

regards
Jacek

great and original pic, TFS Ori

Awesome! Your fill-flash worked a treat and your POV gives a great perspective of the duck in it's environment. In fact your POV is as though we are seeing the bird and scene as another duck on an adjacent rock would see it. Well done.

Hi Ari,
This picture was on TN's first page today and I must say that it immediately attired my attention. I think that this is the most beautiful picture of a Mallard duck that I have seen so far. Use of flash brought out some amazing brilliance, colors and details. I like the way you composed it and this low POV. This is an animal picture and a landscape at the same time. Wonderful!
Claudine

Perfect viewpoint , Great mood and Tones.Agree about unusual and wonderful P.O.W.
