Water fountain flight

It's not all I had hoped for, but Madame Mallard wouldn't fly by again -- that is spray from a very large water fountain in the background. Since I'm determined to keep the image I would appreciate any suggestions for its improvement. The image is heavily cropped and is adjusted a bit in LR4. Please don't be hesitant in making suggestions.

Nice image. I like the water droplets filled background and also the nice colours in the background.
The image might need some rotation. Nice work, Wendell.

I understand why you wish to improve this image, Wendell. I see what you were going for and it was a good idea. Just love that water splash so much in the BG. The pose is nice and I like the colors. The problem is the duck's head is soft, and I don't think there is anything you are going to be able to do in PP to solve that particular problem.
