HI from the C Club
That would be a female mallard, nice birds.
Your focus is not so sharp on the bird, the focus seem to be on the plank of wood just in front of her. A tighter L crop right up to her tail may have helped with this shot. Play around with zooming in and out with your camera. in post processing some sharpening would have gone a long way with this, play around with the brightness shadow and curves and see if that doesn't add to this shot too

| The bright sun & shadows didn't help this picture. It's also slightly blurry (and doesn't seem to be on purpose). |

| Seems almost a snapshot to me, I'm afraid. The sunrise color is very strong and the subject does not seem to stand out against the background. Some blown highlights on the wall in the background are a problem as well. Some selective editing is possibly called for here. I wonder how a b/w version of this might look. I often do that when the colors don't work. |
