Got this rubber duck from a friend of mine on New Year's eve. Placed it on a black and round paper basket.
Lighting is from two flashlights. One is inside the basket and lights the bottom from the rubber duck up. The other one is on the top of the head of the rubber duck.

Personally I hate ducks, however the lighting is exceptional and the mesh/screen base really adds another dimension to this image. Nice sharp clean image. Well done Simply nothing to deduct points for "10"
This is a great rubber ducky shot. (And if anyone tells you it's too centered,..."ima gonna slap'm" They do not understand the spiritual focus of the rubber ducky.
And you've captured it quite well; great clean lines, on a superb foreground with reflection and texture that adds to the duckies mantra instead of detracting.

Of course, i'm a bit bias when it comes to rubber duckies...

Hah! This is flawless. I hope it does well. I submitted what I thought was a flawless ducky months ago and was hammered. All my duckies have been hammered, but to be fair only one was flawless LOL.
