This Common Goldeneye duck was alone as it floated by me.. The lighting was just right to illuminate its Golden eye. I usually lay on the ground with a Como net over my head and body waiting for ducks to slowly swim by. This duck had no idea I was there until it heard the click of my shutter, I guess that would be a reason to go mirrorless!!! maybe someday..

Sweet light. Nice shot.
All about that lighting is what you taught me…
What a striking picture! The Golden-eye shines in the darkness. Award Worthy!
Thank you Mike. Early light is key.
