a gentle morn

with the rain softly falling on the far shore, these ducks enjoy the cool morning, 
all eight of them just sat there, gently floating, 
ignoring the honks and screeches from the other geese and gulls

You captured a gentleness!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.

You certainly managed to capture the calmness of the sky and the water. There's such serenity in them. It's almost mystical. The clouds in the first photo are very good, but both of them are very fine.

I really like the image with the ducks (although they could be grebes!) they add a sense of depth to the picture. I think we can be scared of foreground when we photograph the sky - not here though!

Splendid. Stewart M - Australia
