i like this even better because it's a duckling!!!

and also because of the colours - silvery blue!

love the wavey pattern of the water... looks very inviting to jump in to join that little duckling or it is a swan? hmmm :)

Think I prefer this to yesterday's Helen. For some reason it works much better. There's a smoothness to the water that's just perfect. Wonderful shot.

@Stu: Thanks Stu. This is a repost of a photo Molten that I first presented in B&W. The water is somehow quite smooth and sensual.

Very beautiful. The water looks like satin.

Beautiful, the silver reflections is great, lighting is good and makes the water look more like pond of mercury. BRAVO!!

Really like your colour scheme, and some wonderful, solid shapes going on with those ripples! Very nice indeed!

I cant choose which one I prefer to be honest as theyre both quite beautiful in their own way. I love the lighting through this, and the sense of movement. Really lovely.

silky smooth water. Funny how reflections can change the whole scene from yesterday to today - both great reflections but both creating different looks and moods.

nice and moody, the dark areas remind me of poluted waters, things we should pay more attention at!

I love how the reflections of the sky make me think of flying. Maybe the duck also dreams of flying as it glides through the water.

Out of the three - this one is my winner. Well done on a great series.
