 OK..I know that this is most likely very used so far, But what can I say,

Ever since I saw DeSousa's Swan Lake..I was waiting for a chance to try...even if I have to use a duck!!!!

Hats off to Desousa, this looks easy but actaully has lots of work and lighting to do!

Hey..after submitting in, I did a quick search and found that scarbrd also did this already and has almost an identical name!!!

Scarbrd...This is also to you!!!!

A very cute parody. Nice job recreating the idea with your own unique twist. Ducky is perfect for the job here.

Again? I think this has been done at least once before. It is a respectable rendition though.

conceptually very cool... technique and composition leave a bit to be desired. I think the music should have taken up the whole frame... more like a sea that way (which i understand is tough w/o a larger printer...) hmmm... maybe a bit more light would've helped too.

The plug is a nice touch

De Sousa? I don't get it.

Nicely thought out but let down by lighting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

It may have did even better with good lighting & composition without showing much portion of background.
