Finally got out and about today and took this while walking down by the river in Durham.

Any comments appreciated as it is my first critique post :shock:

Good photograph of a duck in motion.

To get really critical, it would be nice to have some feature, like a moss covered rock, or green pond lily, or something to bring some color contrast to the picture.

Thanks, I like the way the water movement mirrors the plumage of the duck.

Might post a few more tomorrow.
