Looking Back (photography)

A friend invites me to her garden to photograph anytime I wish. As a wildlife photographer, I enjoy watching and photographing the mallards in her cypress pond. The ducks are quite tame and my presence doesn’t bother them. Mallards have more than 11,000 feathers, and when this male mallard struck a pose, I was able to capture many of those feathers, including his distinctive curled tail feathers. The mallard’s flexible neck anatomy allows it to rotate its head 180 degrees. When I took this photo, the mallard turned his head to look back over his body, which created a more unique photo.
