I didn't have time to vote moods but I'm going through the results and ran across this gem. This is a very underrated photo. Perhaps it's the definition of moods (I didn't enter because I was only thinking of moods involving shots of people). But that aside, you've captured, in a non-effect photo a wonderful range of colors in the water that add a painterly effect. My only suggestion is perhaps a bit more contrast on the black side of the histogram might have give it a bit more pop, just a touch so you don't lose the lovely painterly effect.

I love the reflection, but it's a bit weak on the "moods" theme as to how I interpret it.

An absolutely brilliant & beautiful image; however, I don't see what it has to do with the topic of Moods, so I had to deduct accordingly. (4)

Ducks have really grown on me since I registered here. Beautiful shot. I like the composition, colours, & focus. [9]

Pretty photo...I just love duck photos. I take lots of pics of various ducks! Cute fellas, aren't they? Nice DOF and colors.

Nice take on the challenge. Good focus on the duck. I like the ripples in the water around him.

Goodluck!

Nice composition. It might be made a little better by drawing out the color in the image.

lovely image though I´m not sure how well it expresses moods.

reflecting as in reflection, ok; as in being in a reflective mood, well I am not sure a duck would reflect that much...

Although I don’t say this is a bad picture I have scored this low.
Low in my book is not extremely low, but I guess there will be other people thinking the same way I do who don’t leave a comment.
Don’t take this the wrong way, this is my own opinion, and I am trying to let you understand what some voters may think.

In my opinion this does not meet the challenge, the description of the challenge: Take a picture that captures an emotion.
I looked hard, but I don’t see an emotion. This could be my fault, but that’s the reason why I voted lower as I would normaly do.
