Agree with the comments above. The colours are superb and I like the way the water radiates out from the duck. I would have cropped a little more off the top and the left side to place it more centrally. What do you think?

Yes! What a good shot Kent! Jag skulle skriva att det är en MANDARIN anka men såg att flera redan har berättat detta för dig. Så vackra färger.

Beautiful colors captured here, Kent! It's like a "patchwork" of colors with its solids and stripes. Thanks for sharing!
