Challenge: Ducky (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Canon PowerShot G2
Location: in my dining room
Date: Oct 10, 2006
Aperture: f3.5
ISO: 50
Shutter: 1/100
Galleries: Humorous
Date Uploaded: Oct 10, 2006

 The room is made of drywall and painted.
I made the curtains, rug, and furniture from odds and ends.
A computer monitor with a picture of the moon (my own photo)was placed behind the window.

Darn it! I spent too much time creating the set, that I actually ran out of time to do much post-processing to the photo. My lighting was so terrible, that I had to "majorly" desaturate the yellow hues.

Nice spoof with the title. Image is a little flat. I would like to see a bit more color or contrast (right now the bed and table just blend into the wall). Love the extra touch of the photo of the ducks on the wall and the blue moon.

Very creative idea, and I like the pun! The colors and contrast on this photo seem to be slightly off to me though. They look almost muted.

Great use of props for this sweet scene.

Maybe, with advanced editing, a few edges could be just a touch cleaner.
I like the picture on the wall. Nice detail.

The room set is great. The colors look a little overprocessed for my taste.

Clever use of chinee foo title - that's great. The image looks just a hint lo-res but it quite effective regardless.
