[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I photographed these ducks at Grapevine Lake in Texas on 12/01/06. It was very cold, but sunny. These two ducks are a couple (male and female). They are always seen with a large group of Mallards. I don't know if the are crossbred or what? If anyone knows, please tell me.

The one on the right looks to be a male mallard, but the one on the left isn't a female mallard. Nice DOF on this one Ken.

Simpatica foto Ken!
Belli questi due anatidi che "chiacchierano",
bei dettagli e composizione, bravo!

Ciao e grazie.

Hi Ken,
I am not an expert on ducks, but this picture looks very nice. Greatly capturing these two ducks in this pose. Sharp and neat.
Nice shot.

Nice work with DOF and your title fits this image perfectly. Lighting is great and sharpness and details are wonderful. I think I see a little flirting going on. ;)

Fantastic composition and lovely capture... perfect title to it as well. Wonderful detail and color and very nice DOF, I like the fact that the duck on the left is slightly OOF, adds depth. Good catch light in the eye of the one duck and nice detail in the eye of the other.

TFS, Mish
