"No ducks were killed in the making of this image," he said earnestly; "however, Duckie is dying of shame that she was so ill-received by the bigots of DPC." Something needs to be done, Art: are you with me, man?

Cute, well exposed with good lighting, good processing . . . but for me, it's a bit too contrived

beautiful ighting and color - but makes absolutely no sense - why is the rubber duckie in the dark bedroom with the slipper? A flip flop in the tub maybe?

how can you be sure it isn't the duckies' comfort zone, and she isn't just infringing on it time after time?
