I found myself laying on my stomach beside a small creek in Winnipeg, observing this male Mallard and when I lifted my camera to take the image. I looked through the viewfinder and I felt that it was missing a little something. While the light was very pleasing, the composition wasn't doing it for me. I looked a few feet to my right and noticed a small v-shaped patch of tall beige grass. I thought it would frame the Mallard nicely. I crawled over and took the shot from that point and I think that's just what it needed.
