Needed a splash of colour today - dreadful weather :(

Love the ducks - can't get my head around the large head in the first shot tho.

The pochard shot is stunning,

These are absolutely stunning...very nicely done....

It looks like you did some processing work on the water in the 1st and 3rd images that looks almost like brush strokes....if this is correct do you mind sharing what you did? Its a beautiful effect.
