Is this a composite? Somehow the reflection doesn't seem to match...

Nice muted tones, though.

Cheers

No, not a composite, the reflections are from the top part that's been cropped. There has been extensive PP though.

I like this... the PPing is great
the only thing that worries me is the white and blue reflections in the bottom right as they tend to draw your eye to the corner and then out of frame
maybe you could do a color shift/desaturate on them to bring them more into line with the main coloring of the shot

I agree, the best duck shot I've seen in a while. The blue ducks fit perfectly into the pale-blue and gold scenery. And they're small enough not to ruin the image :D

Cheers
Steffen.

A first nice duck photo to start with the new season.
It's better than the photo of the "duck" on Sydney Harbour named SOH. :lol: :lol:

Hey Wally, are you going to night school? Your grammar and spelling has really improved overnight. If so, you are a fast learner :wink: :wink: :wink:

A magnificent watercolour there without all of the messy paints. Splendiferous!!
The hot white reflections in the right lower corner disturb me. Clone/patch them out and AAHH!! I'm happy.

Me - I likes this one.
It looks like a picture of a painting.
Guess that was the intent.
Just wonder where the shiny black Retriever Dog is??
