Another image from my recent holiday in Cape Town. I'm glad I achieved good DOF on both, and both with full downstroke of their near wings. The BG is a distant mountain, and taken early morning.

Beautiful - exposure, colours, ideal lighting and pose lovely sky what more could you ask for?
Composition: I like, I did wonder about lowering the ducks just a few mm in the frame??
Hi Stu - Love the symmetry to this with their identical wing position. Beautiful, subtle bg colors and the eye really pops out. I agree with Jon about a little less below.
TFS,

Nice how they both have the same wing position here. The background is great. Nice one.
Thanks for the feedback Jon, Rachel and John. Here is a repost with some taken off the bottom.
STU:
Great pose symmetry, amazing how their eyes pop out, even at such a small size. Texture in bg helps. I do like the slight comp change.
Well captured

Rinky tinky Stu!
i like the lowered ducks Stu, and these ducks are beauties, that red eye is "eye-catching!" I like the BG as well, very sweet frame.
Hi Stu,
Very nice frame. Terrific that both ducks are so sharp and a great BG. I like the repost best.
