Bit blown out on the body of the duck, I like the water, surreal looking.

Some may say to processed etc. but I think this was your goal as the duck has emerged from this pool of life.Nice crop and reflection of the mallards head.Good luck on this. -8-

It looks like the hue & saturation was over done on the green... of course, it could just be the glare of the sun.
