Let sleeping ducks lie

06May10

On a whimsical theme, this Mallard duck clearly didn’t mind being in the spotlight.  She was so bored by the whole process that she snoozed through the parade of visitors to Westbury Gardens who stopped to take a photograph of her on her yew hedge.  No need for long lenses here, you could almost get within touching range of her.

A GF1 jpeg image, with a little recovery (highlights in the feathers), added vibrancy, slight adjustments to contrast (a very slight S-curve) and a boost to definition.  The black point has been moved fractionally rightwards.
