Thanks, Ray! I loved the coloring on the water---even though it was far too windy for the surface to be still (as a reflecting pool) the wind did make for an interesting effect. #2552929

Thanks, William! I was very happy to have captured him mid-quack, too! I'd have preferred a little more sharpness, but he was really paddlin'! #2554998
