Beatiful scene. I personally would like it better without the ducks. The beginning wasn't a time with advanced life forms (or at least the "darkness" of time your trying to portray here). Other then that, it is a stunning shot. 8
Nice beginning photo. I like the mist but something seems out of color with the background. I'm seeing blues and greens that are too harsh. I don't know the technical term, but look like odd negative colors with halo effect.
