What a surprise, I was expecting ducks with their heads down from the thumb. You really need to look at the larger version to see the details. Looks like a great way to keep cool and a nice strong blue sky reflection in the water. The two heads on the left could stand to be dodged a bit, but since this is slide film, there may not be anything there but black.

Very appropriate for this wc John and camels are usually seen crossing the desert, so this is not your typical shot. I especially like the contented look on the two right-most animals.
