i like the colors and shapes in the Leaf soup. I especially like the bits of black peeking through - gives a nive autumny contrast to the orange leaves. Light is a bit flat, and I wish we could see the textures better, perhaps as Jon says, you could go with the flatness and go further away and get the overall pattern.
The ducks' color does echo the snow nicely, and the water ripple leading out of the corner are nice. Wish the bank had been all snow, or at least less mucky leaves, but it sounds like that is the nature of the Portland climate.
