Coming out of the shadows adds some mystery to the image. The ducks don’t seem to be very at ease, nicely done Yves. Glad you had some time to set up the image.

Thank you Debra. I do less walking now, I take more time on one spot now, trying to capture life in the making.

Interesting lighting with a nice view of the ladies taking a walk, Yves. The female mallards stick together and are fun to watch.

Thanks Heather. Agree with you and they makes very nice photos too.

Shows a real difference between light and darker. Nice

Thanks Jane. I love that shot for many reason. When I saw 4 ducks about to get out of the water to take a walk on the ground I took all the time to frame them exactly the way it is.
