Today I’m sharing an image with you that won first prize in the waterfowl category in the Wood Duck Photography Contest. It is a contest held by the Cleveland Metroparks during their annual Wood Duck Festival. I took this image last year but reprocessed it because the background was a little too hot. But with the extra touches it doesn’t distract from the main subject. Hope to see some of you at the festival!

Will — this is beautiful! The background is nicely balanced with the subject.
