This flight of Ring-necked ducks was caught in an early morning spring light againts a complimentary background. They are not all that common in our area and are probably just briefly here on their migration run.

Canon 7D with the 500L f4 lens with the 1.4 Extender II on a monopod @ 1/1000, f5.6, ISO 400, +2 2/3 exposure compensation.

Slight crop to de-centre the birds for composition purposes. Background despeckled following sharpeninng.

EXPOSITION d'art champêtre: Village en arts, le 6, 7 et 8 juillet, 2012 sous les chapiteaux dans le parc Le Picart et rue De l'Entente du quartier Saint-Nicolas à Lévis.
