This has to be one of my all time favorite fall shots, Karen -- I love that you have just the reflections as a background for the duck silhouette. Great job here -- you are going to have trouble picking just 3 for the FFFP theme! Lots of great autumn images in your gallery. #6636587

I really love this shot ... Great abstract, except for the duck ... does that make it an "almost abstract?" #6683114

Karen, this is groovy! Love the strong autumn colors in their richness and the duck helps anchor the floating mirage!
Congrats on a "duckedelic" EP! :-) #6685047

Thank you Leland and Joannie. I don't know if it's an abstract or even an almost abstract Leland. All I know is that it's a real duck on a real lake with a real reflection! LOL #6692662
