You seem to know a great deal already, photographically speaking! A well deserved 10.

Nice duckling shot... sharp, good exposure, expressive body language. Since animals are so easily anthropomorphized, I think an animal-less photo would meet the challenge better for me.
Post actions
great great shot!!! i like the light and the lovely little duck... compliments...
Spreading my wings. Learning to fly
