Location
This photo was taken at one of my favorite waterfowl places, Memorial Park in Shakopee, Mn.Time
This was mid afternoon with a cloudy blue gray sky. The dim lighting actually made the ducks colors stand out more.Lighting
Don't be discouraged if the weather appears gloomy. Sometimes its sets a nice backdrop for some beautiful colors on your subject.Equipment

My Cameras, tripod, filtered lenses and sphere for some fun shots.Feedback
Animals and birds are unpredictable. Make sure to be ready snap your shot and don't be afraid to linger around a bit. You'll be surprised what photos you can get.
