I love the color palette, and the duck is nice and sharp. I do get pulled away by the lighter part of the ground and wonder if cropping in would be stronger.   Posted: 02/17/2026 16:50:21

The leaves are nice because they tie in with the duck's head color but I think this is a case of what do you want the viewer to focus on. If it's the duck you might want to try a vertical crop.   Posted: 02/19/2026 15:46:41
