I have to admit that I missed the ducks! They certainly make your image and make it the best in this challenge ;)

PS I would have cloned out the last duck cut in half

as a thumb i thought this was going to be quite ordinary .. but when i opened it .. it was like .. OMG .. !!! ..
i have to translate here .. in australia ordinary means ..
ordinary
In Australian usage, ordinary can be employed to mean "not good" or, as a form of understatement, "really quite bad"
Frank admitted he'd been feeling pretty ordinary since being hit by that truck.
its a great word to use .. i reckon all english speaking countries should include it in their vocab ..

anyway .. back to this AWESOME and WONDERFUL image . !!! ..
on opening this i just shook my head .. literally .. that it was so good ..
what an amazing photo .. just brilliant .. :)
i'm sitting here wishing i could do justice in words to how excellent i think this is .. :)
