Depends--if the duck comes up holding a swordfish, shark, snake, or diamond ring, I'd say yes. Otherwise, probably not.

Yep, probably not. Serendipity -- what a difficult concept to represent with an image. Not too many "represent" the idea of Serendipity, but rather they are mostly serendipitous events or scenes for the author. That is often revealed by the Titles which are long so they can explain the image rather than something that might poetically echos the subject.

Fair cop! Mine represents a serendipitous event in my life and has a reasonably long title too! It was harder than I imagined to represent the idea without showing an image OF a serendipitous occurence - I just couldn't think of a way to do that, frankly! I'll certainly be voting UP those entries that do achieve that as I think it will really show a lot of creativity on the part of the photographer.
