  • Support Tail's a little more out of focus than I'd prefer, but this otherwise has no problems. Adam Cuerden (talk)Has about 6.3% of all FPs 09:29, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - I find the small water droplets reflecting sunlight to be a little glaring. They are also clipped, mainly in red. This is an easy support if the highlights can be recovered, but as is I'm not quite sure. MER-C 18:08, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    @Yann: A second version of the image has been uploaded over the original that recovers highlights and improves sharpness somewhat. It's certainly an improvement, though the droplets still don't have enough color information in them to make it obvious that they are small water droplets. As for me, I'm still on the fence for that reason. MER-C 12:18, 14 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment The overexposed area is disturbing. I would support if that is fixed. --Yann (talk) 12:01, 11 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment head is really sharp, but back end is not in focus. Charlesjsharp (talk) 17:12, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'll ask the duck to go on a diet so it fits within the depth of field and get back to you. JJ Harrison (talk) 20:34, 13 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
