20140303 096 401 Common Goldeneyes 2.jpg

Ottawa West

Two male Goldeneyes. The green-headed one on the left is an adult male. The brown-headed one on the right is a first winter male. This image is two images merged/cloned together. I didn't like the drab blue water by itself with only the ducks in it; hence, I added a bit of shoreline architecture/ice formation.

Nikon D800 ,Nikkor AF-S 500mm f/4G ED VR
1/2500s f/8.0 at 500.0mm iso220 full exif
