Comparison C&C would be appreciated

I think me and the ducks have to part company for awhile...I call these:

Duck Art I



Duck - Art!

Both are good..just one problem with the color one though..the lower right corner could've been somewhat less bright..that would have added to the overall ambience of the image.. The B&W version is much better..

The brightness of the right corner doesn't really bother me, though I might consider rotating this 90 degrees counterclockwise so the white is at the top right. What I *don't* like is the little "patch" of white on the bottom left.

I definitely like the color more than the B&W. I also think that perhaps you and the ducks should NOT part company, as I'd like to see what else you come up with.

Yep, what she said.^
The color is definitely better and the lower left corner looks a little odd.

Color is better.. more interest! I agree about the lower left corner being distracting... clone it out. Also see if you can pull more detail out of the the white feathers!

 

[ceeboy14]

I think I can tone it down a notch or two but losing it completely throws off the balance between darks and lights. I'll see. The B&W was a very rough treatment, but that's what you get when you play. I had as much fun on the play of words as I did with the variations.

Time for me to be contrary again. The color was not of much interest to me, but when I saw the BW I was immediately pulled into the textures and patterns on the feathers. It also allowed you to turn the white patch in the lower left into an asset - now that it's darker and shows more of a pattern it adds rather than detracts.

The colour one.... Upside down.

It has a nice organic feel to it flipped and the corner adds depth instead of distracting.
