I already have quite a few photos of ducks on my blog. But do you like this particular one? Continue reading Duck and Water Reflection

I wasn’t really at eye level, I was standing on a bridge but with my Tamron 70-300mm lens, I can give the impression that I am at eye level … Continue reading Beautiful Duck
