O.K. this made me chuckle and shake my head - both the title and the image. The victims of a hit and run: the rubber duckys. The suspect on the loose: A woody. I have to hand it to you this is a very creative idea where the humor is either going to hit or miss. I like the addition of motion - the car running over the ducks. It shows action in the shot in that the rubber duckys have just been run over by a moving car. But for some reason the movement in the shot appears to look like it is about to run over the ducks. It looks like it is moving towards the flattened ducks when it should be moving away. Composition needs to be tightened a bit. First off, it could be a tighter focus on the duckys - there is just a little too much of the roadway showing. While the roadway is an important element in the shot showing too much of it takes focus away from the main subject plus it is not overly attractive to look at. Cropping or zooming in on your main subject will keep the eye's attention where it needs to be. Zooming in on your main focus might also help to reduce glare/reflected light bouncing off of the wet pavement such that the last ducky is overexposed for its yellow tones fade to white. Lastly, is it a car wheel or a bike wheel that is in movement? I can't quite tell, but because I see evidence of a car in the shot (the red) I want to think it is a car - plus a the weight of a car would be much more effective in flattening rubber ducks than just a bike. If it is a car than maybe composing the shot at a slightly different angle that would include a tail light would strengthen a connection to a car.
