Mandarin Duck Profile
Name: Iridian
Photographer Notes: Iridian is a living masterpiece. His extraordinary colors—unique among all ducks—symbolize a centuries-old tale of love and fidelity. Originating in East Asia, mandarin ducks are revered for their strong pair bonds and represent a lifetime of devotion. Photographing him was an exercise in simplicity and precision. I used a single light source to the right of the camera to highlight his shape and magnificent color display.
