I like the water colour and texture, sharpness and composition. Nice image Jonathan.

Nice detail, and water is very attractive to go with the duck.
Not big o the highlights in the water, but probably no way around them.

The water color on these ducks you are posting is just out of this world, Jonathan. Super job on exposing for the dark duck here and the brown works beautifully against the green.

Very nice. Love the swirls in the water. I might be tempted to clone out 2 or 3 of the blue areas in the water behind the duck. I find my eye drawn there,

Too bad about the brighter spots in the water, but I really love the swirling patterns and colours in lower right corner. Duck looks good too with a very nice eye...just wish its body was angled more towards us.

[Henry Domke]

Love the color of the water.
Is the duck's eye a little soft?
Perhaps if you increased the contrast around the pupil.
