Hey All,
I'm new, to both the forums and photography. Can you give me some critiques of my duck friends I hung out with yesterday? Thanks!
I can see now that #1 is not sharp enough, but what else can I improve on?

dosch Junior Member 24 posts Joined Aug 2009 Location: Boulder/Denver, CO More info | I hope you don't mind, I did a few things in Lightroom. Bumped up the exposure, fill light, blacks, as well as the contrast with a slight sharpening.  Then I just had some fun, took the BG and softened/warmed it up a tad just to make the perdy mallard really jump out.

There's only so much you can do when the subject is in the shade without a flash. Still a nice image nonetheless.
