EDITORS COMMENTS
Take to the skies! This stunning photo captures a majestic Male Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos) in full plumage, taking off from the frozen pond on a crisp December morning in Alaska. The drake's vibrant blue and green feathers glisten in the winter sunlight, creating a breathtaking display of color against the serene backdrop of snow-covered trees and ice. As he spreads his wings, the water ripples beneath him, sending tiny droplets flying into the air.
The Mallard's profile is sharp and defined as he looks away from us, his eyes fixed on some distant point beyond the camera lens. The blurred background adds depth and texture to the image, while the focus remains sharply on our feathered friend as he prepares for takeoff.
This shot showcases not only Ken Marsh's exceptional wildlife photography skills but also highlights the beauty of nature during Alaska's winter months. Whether you're an avid bird enthusiast or simply appreciate stunning visuals, this photograph is sure to leave you mesmerized.
