11/22 Didn't mean to enter this shot. I thought I took it out before the challenge began.

It's weird, I think I actually learn more from entering a blah shot like this than from my higher scoring challanges.

Not that anyone will read this or look at this duck again. :)

The spots are easy to see, but I'd like to be able to see the eye better (lighter) and the focus point nearer the head of the duck than its tail.

absolutely beautiful colors of the duck - the clarity of the water is bonus

A beauty with lovely water ripples all around.

great photo. Beautiful water but maybe too much of a good thing. More tightly cropped particularly at the top. I partially scroll the image off my computer screen and I like it better.

What's with the water? really clear, shallow light colored bottom. Like liquid silver at the bottom and clear as glass at the top.

If there were a glint in the eye, it would have improved this shot.
