Quack!

[Bend The Light]

I went out on a little walk today with a friend who has just got himself a dSLR. He wanted to go with someone with a little knowledge of photography...well, since I have little knowledge of photography, i went with him!

We found some ducks, and the challenge was to get the ducks in flight, or at least with wings spread. Here are a couple or three of mine.

Incidentally, I have a Natural History competition coming up...i.e. living beasties or plants in their natural habitat. Think any of these would do me any good in that?

First and forth are my favorites. Great background colours in the first.

Thank you...the background is a sort of worn dry grass area, so mostly just "muck". Think the "bokeh" effect has made it nicer than it really is.

Cheers
