As hard as they tried, they couldn't quite flap their paddles fast enough to miss the bottom of the drop :p ;).

Hmmm. You are testing your luck now, aren't you.....trying to pull a fast one on me, like James there just attempted foolishly....and he failed, and so do you. Rejected.:evil:

Accepted.
The compo is OK, it is the exposure which needs work. Editing does not cut it boy, gotta expose the shot right with your camera to start with.:evil:

This was shot Saturday under a very heavy sky, it was already almost dark. High park seemed empty. The exposure could use some work, there is a weird blue tint. I do need to work on my duck shots, but ponds will not cut it anymore. If you want me to shoot ducks, we will have to get together and shoot on the lake. That goes for birding as well.

This mutant Nuzee palmtree could not fly even if your life depended on it...neither can that pigeon, Mopper. Rejected.

The chicken shot is OK.
