Wood Duck #3
Another bird! Wood Duck #3 has been one of my favorite photos for over 10 years, and is one that hangs in my studio. The beauty of the photograph is its simplicity and detail. It captures the male, in breeding colors, as he sits at rest. The mirroring of the rippling water around the duck, and the water droplet on his side add almost a fake texture. At my home I’ve heard people debating on whether the work is a photograph or a painting. I’m not certain if that’s a backhanded compliment to the photo, or a compliment to the amazing wildlife artist that are out there! I take it as both.
