The speculum by Georgina Steytler. Australia. Gold award winner in the creative imagery category. A Pacific black duck (Anas superciliosa) shows its iridescent speculum feathers in Garvey Park, Perth, Western Australia. “I took this photo at a small lake. The still waters and the dark foliage of the background resulted in an opportunity to highlight the gorgeous feathers. I exaggerated the effect in Adobe Lightroom (and cropped), but otherwise have not altered the original photo”. (Photo by Georgina Steytler/2017 Bird Photographer of the Year Awards)
