What a cute photo, well done, too, of a duckling seemingly afraid of the water!
But why swim when there are so many leaves on which Duckling can walk, hm?
Very nice work in both shots - both are clear and sharp - though I would hazzard that the first is that little bit sharper.
I also recon that with the lilly leaves you could not get down much lower without having them invading the lower half of a shot - and cutting off the lower section of the duck as well
