Re: Female Mallard

Can seem quite daunting at first but with a bit of practice you'll be able to tweak your images. Also I'd suggest taking a look at some of the bird images on here. The ones that work best will have the light from behind the photographer or a bit from the side. Of course this isn't always possible but you should see how it helps.

Hi Peter the light is better, but it looks a bit to much orange on the belly, do you mind if I have a go ?
