Karl, these are superb. The low angel does make a big difference - something I must work on. The tech's on these are also spot on - to be expected from you. TFS.

Were you UNDER the water for the first 4 What cool shots Karl but I got shivers looking at that duck walking on frozen water brrrrrrrr. Your gear seems to be dialed in!
I hope your tongue didn't get stuck to the frozen floor

I might have gone underwater if my bed of ice gave way The sun was quite warming and of course not much wind when you are laying down
The gear seems to be quite good, still have to do a complete micro adjust but these are straight with no adjust.
Thanks buddy

These are beautiful photos. You must have been wearing a snorkel to get that low. Really hard to even pick a favorite. Makes me want to get in the Jeep and drive to Ohio.
Being that low sure gives one a kink in the neck! If you show up I will take you
Thanks much
Karl

It's Limbo Time - how low can you go!... A terrific set Karl. Very low for sure, and very well captured . You managed to get a hint of color in the blacks in these and The low angle gave you a great bg. The first three are my picks followed by the unusual pose in 4. 5 ain't too bad either. No nits ~ Ron
Glad to hear your likes here Ron and getting a 'no nits' rating is out of this world encouraging
Thanks my friend

An excellent set, Karl.
I am fascinated by the last image because the oof canvasback- although behind the scaup- seems somehow to loom over him. I also like that their poses are the same.

Sorry to hear about your frozen body parts, Karl. Hope you've thawed by now.
These images are wonderful - love the pale water and backgrounds, and this low angle is perfect. Nice work.
