Autumn Canal Reflections

[stevegreen]

Just the one from today as we walked along the canal that is just down the road from where I was lived as a nipper. I have very fond memories of sledging down the hill to the right of the frame as a kid and nearly ending up in the canal on a particularly good run!

Yep, it's a duck I think. I didn't even notice it when I took the shot

[Liquid101]

yep - great shot, perfect exposure.

I agree a perfectly still river may have improved it, but it's still very nice indeed.

Lovely shot Steve - you're too young to start reminiscing

Ruddy Duck

Come on chaps - the duck makes the picture. Lovely clean shot.

That's a great pic, the sky has come out really well, i'm split over the duck though, if the duck wasn't there the picture wouldnt be as good (still good, but the duck is cool), but because the duck is there the water ripples and disturbs the peace, but if the duck wasnt there then it wouldnt be as good, but the water would have been still, im beginning to confuse myself now so i'll stop

I'm kind of glad the duck is causing so much discussion as it takes the attention away from the elephant on the hill which I think is far more dominant

funny thing is i actually went back to check

[bodoman]

Its certainly a controversal duck alright, expecting holowlegs here any minute to rush to the ducks defence

REALLY nice shot steve, it's got a great balance to the composition

But I do think a family of ducks would of taken to shot to the next level!
