Very interesting colour to the water here. I wish this individual was not swimming away from you though!! I would probably crop about half of the empty space at bottom and see if you could eliminate the zig-zagging dark line running down the left edge (either by cropping or QM + clone/patch tool)

[Dave Phillips]

agree with Daniel......but I love the little wakes they create, esp when coming straight toward me

[gary rouleau]

I cropped out the empty space on the bottom which also eliminates the vertical line.

Thanks

looks nice in repost Gary.....IMO

Water really makes this image. Well spotted.

I like the colours in this, and what a strange water pattern. Well done here Gary.

I like the repost better, Gary. The water is amazing, but IMO it overpowers the duck - I can't keep my eyes off the water.
