Northern Shoveler

[Tushar Dixit]

It's raining water birds at IndiaWilds so thought of sharing one too. One of the most beautiful of ducks - The Northern Shoveler. Male is even more beautiful in the breeding plumage. Clicked this one at Kavdi towards the end of last season - hope to see them again soon.

EOS 7D with 400mm f/5.6L @ f/6.3, 1/600, ISO 500, bean bag support, low level with lying flat on ground. C&C most welcome!

Very nice image. sharp and rich colours. the reflection of the eye in the water is the icing on the cake.

I agree. Nice image. The low angle has worked. The reflection adds to the image. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,

Beautiful image Tushar, the colors and the reflection have come out well. The low angle gives a nice feel to the image.

Nice image Tushar. The colours looks nice. A few whites near the rump seem blown, else this is a fabulous image. Thanks for sharing.
