Took this image at Wakodahatchee(hope I spelled it right) in Florida-I was shooting the GBH's building their nest when these guys flew over-got a couple shots (so-so) . I put a poster edge effect on the birds and blurred the really busy BG-not sure if it looks okay-Let me know.
Denise - I really like this photo. It comes closer to a "wall hanger" than many pictures of what is preferred as the "perfect" tack sharp, etc., etc. This frame should be one of many frames taken so one could pick their ideal composition. Although not perfect it shows feeling and thats a great thing to accomplish.

Rob, Thanks for your kind words.
Lady Denise...I like this very much...the sharp details and the color rendition of your duck is fantastic...To bring this over the top, would recommend separating the ducks that are merging and reconstruct the portions...:) This is one heck of a capture...congrats...:cool:
Neat base image Denise !!! The ducks are still around and in great numbers and at times will fly fairly close !! Love how you got them landing !!! Edge effect rounds it nicely !!!
Denise, I like this a lot. The poster edge effect gives the image a 3D look that I am fond of. This could have been over-done, but you did a good job of keeping it under control.
I think you did a great job on this - I love their pink bills and feet - gives the image real punch. I also like that you totally distorted the BG or I think you would have lost your focal point to all that was going on back there.
I agree that you need to break the ducks apart in order to get an even better comp but this is really a great try!
3D at it's best!! i like this a lot. it's nice that you only applied it to the birds. really makes them pop!!!
Denise I like the image, but I might lower the opacity on the birds. They look a little too pasted to me. Just my .02. The BG is fabulous though.
