Great colour, texture and a very unusual crop make a very interesting image. Now, here's the question: What did the duck eventually taste like?

Posted: Fri Oct 26, 2007 11:21 pmMasterful work Mr K. The tight crop makes this almost abstract. Great colours and another well chosen subject from you.

Posted: Sat Oct 27, 2007 3:18 pmLovely image! I think the eye could have done with a stronger reflection, but it is still a beautiful image.
Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2007 6:41 pmI love the idea but like many others, first thing I saw was that the duck was soft. Would have been a ripper, otherwise.
Cheers

Posted: Wed Oct 31, 2007 10:17 pmI'll agree with you all that the duck is a little soft....but the message is...not every image has to be tack sharp! It's well known in professonal portraiture that very sharp lenses can work against the photograph. This can also be true for some landscapes. Sharpness and softness are creative controls. David Hamilton, the famous photographer of very young beautiful sometimes semi-draped girls was rumoured to alway use a Minolta (Rokker?) 50mm lens that had small chips on the front element. It gave him the softness and diffusion that made his style.
Thanks for the comments and feedback. You make me think.
