  Alright Mary, to me this is the BEST version. Details and colors are absolutely very eye-catching!! You're indirectly giving me the signal to go ahead with my cute ducky. (not as good as this)

  Barbara, SuSana, Teresa, Maureen, Tiia, Dominick, Peaches, Don, Colette, Laurence, and Patricia, I appreciate your thoughtful comments and comparisons very much! THANK YOU!
Judging by the enthusiasm expressed under the larger version, more people like that one, which makes my husband happy, as he prefers that one as well.

I prefer this one slightly, mainly because the duck's eye and its catchlight are more noticable. I'm pleased and grateful that it's received an EFP plaque. :)

  Mary- While both are outstanding, for me, I prefer this one a little better.
Can see why it got an editors pick and think the other one should to.
Rich in colors that are just awesome.
Details out of this world. The water and ripples are so special. Lighting is fantastic. Clarity is like being right there.
This all would hold true of either picture.
Such talented work girl.
Have a great day my friend, enjoy the weekend, be safe

  Thanks so much for your kind response to my duck photos, Frank. You've made my night!
Now, make sure you've got all the chips and dip and, uh, beverages you need before you settle in to watch the Green Bay Packers do their thing. "On, Wisconsin!"

  I really like this shot. The detail and clarity in the duck and the wonderful clarity in the water with nice reflective colors.
