Hello everyone. Well we have a good amount of rain here that a ponding area at a local park has flooded pretty good. After a couple of days these ducks started arriving. They are very shy so I laid flat on the ground and waited till they came my way. Hope you enjoy. C&C welcomed and encouraged.

Nice low angle and pretty water. Looks as if it might need a bit of CCW rotation and a bit more sharpening on the face.

Robert, good low angle, and swimming pose. I like the DOF effect around the ripples, and would maybe take about half off the bottom.

Nice low angle. Agree about the face being soft. I like the colors and the coy look he is giving you!

Ditto Artie and Stuart. Neat colours and pose.

[Emily Norman]

Great low angle shot. I agree you could go a bit sharper on the face but overall a beautiful image.

I agree with comments and also feel it could use a little more depth in the face. Great colors and low angle.
