- Strong support Excellent quality and composition of a difficult subject, nice light. I find this one even better than the previous duck you nominated here -- Basile Morin (talk) 01:41, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- I agree with you, Basile. Also, this one offers more details due to the bigger sensor. Now, with that being said, the first pintail shot was taken with a 5D Mk IV and a 400mm unstabilized lens, which – as I now realize – was so much more difficult given that I had to hit the focus without any kind of eye-autofocus support that the new mirrorless RF cameras offer. A guy that I'm following on YouTube even went so far as to state that taking bird-in-flight images like this with a modern camera felt "like cheating" :-) --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 02:05, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- If that's cheating, you should withdraw :-) Lol
- More seriously, looking again at it, in addition to my review above, I find the colors particularly harmonious between the animal and the background -- Basile Morin (talk) 03:55, 6 December 2021 (UTC)

- Support Us fellow cheats should stick together! By the way Frank, I sent my R6 bodies back to Canon because of the focus problems and they seem to be slightly better, but we'll have to wait and see. Charlesjsharp (talk) 10:32, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
