Just Another Day at the Beach
20151227-_DSC9344
Just another day at the beach: 36 F (2 C), 20 mph (32 km/h) winds, and gray skies. Camera mounted flashgun was used to brighten photo, then intentionally blew out 40% of the background in Lightroom during post processing. The duck is standing on gravel at a boat launch, but am attempting to give the illusion of standing on white sand.
At the lake were 70 mallards, 20 geese, one muscovy duck, one common goldeneye, and one ruddy duck. Could not get close enough to the goldeneye or ruddy duck for a good photo.
