Nice colors in the water and love the ripples. Suggestions: cropped from the top and cleaning the shot would have taken it to another level!

My favourite in this challenge, love it! A little crop to remove some of the top would make this even better.

A little unrealistic in the colors. But it's an interesting way to go about processing. My son loves the dog in the water... he is sitting here telling me "I want a puppy like that". So he loves the photo. :)
I also like the idea of it, the ripples in the water. I just think it went a little overboard in the coloring.

I was out training my dogs and shot this with a cheap Panasonic DMC-ZS6 point and shoot. I don't have time to handle two dogs, throw dummies, use whistles and lug around my DSLR all in and around a pond.For the ones that took the time to look, it is a dummy duck. The breed is a Deutscher Wachtelhund, a versatile hunting breed from Germany. Thanks all for the comments, they encourage me to shot more often.

Wonderful action shot - love the dripping water and the look of his wet coat. Glad he was just practicing on a decoy :)

This is a great old time style portrait. I imagine this would be a perfect shot for hunting magazines from the 70s (of which I perused a lot of in my grandpa's cabin).
