Took this shot at the local grain & feed store. Love the tones and the softness, yet it was only a quick shot in a box full of slightly older ducks. It always amazes me how you can try to get a shot for hours and even days (as I did for this challenge), only to eventually choose one that you never suspected you would use at all and took quickly. :)

I had about 6 other choices of shots and cliche`s, but I really liked the way this shot came out for one of the cliche`s on my list to use. Hope you do as well!

The best of the "Bird of a Feather Flock Together" pictures. Really like the tone of it and the border helps it. Great job. Good luck.

I can't put my fingers on what it is, but I can't stop looking at it. Maybe it's the lighting and the lack of depth.
