 The clouds finally started coming in today and we had ourselves a little shower, so I ran out to get some pictures. Was happy to find some ducks that were enjoying themselves.

I like this shot. The simple colors are very appealing to me. It does feel just a touch off balance, though, because the ducks are more *in* the frame than the rocks. Just a tiny nitpick though. Good work.

I like the compostion with the beasts & the rocky shore. The white of the ducks looks a little blown for my taste, but it does make for a serene feel.

I like this image a lot. The blue offset by the starkness of the ducks is a great compliment. Good job.

I would have cropped the rocks out of the image. They pull my veiw too much away from the brds.

I love the group of ducks all clustered together amidst the beautiful blue water. Their white color is a great contrast. The circles caused by the drops make for interesting shape vairations. The rocks in the lower left help to ground the photo.
