My first challenge. Done at the 11th hour. Perched ducks/monkey on bath tub ledge in case that wasn't apparent. Wireless flash on toliet bounced off ceiling. Should have cloned out highlights. I was going for more of the humor angle. Thanks to those who commented and saw what I was going for.

Funny stuff. Nice focus. A couple of flash marks could have been easily fixed--but still a fine photo.

I love the humor and expressions in this composition!!! The plucky, chubby duck turns his head to the confused monkey and makes the observation, "I just don't think his head is screwed on right." The duck that they are talking about has a screw top on his head. It is the attention to detail, the arrangement of your subjects and the expressions that make this a wonderfully creative composition. I wonder if a simple lake scene or park scene as the backdrop would have improved the setting by adding to the composition or if it would have made it too complex with too many elements? Lighting could be better with less glare reflecting off of the ducky on the left and the monkey's brow & smile on the right.
