Hi Guys,
Whilst going through some of my "old" CF-cards i come across all sorts of nice stuff of wich i had thought i'd lost it during the crash of my external hard drives some time ago. This is a flight shot i took last winter from one of my favourite hides for capturing ducks.
Greetings,

Lovely shot Jeroen, the OOF bird gives great depth to the image, agree with JR re more on the left.

Hi Jeroen,
A quacking image!! The OoF one really sets it off. Lovely colours and I think the OoF one balances out the composition.

Yep, I like that. The oof focus bird adds to the story and the sharp one gives the detail. Well-balanced, although I do agree with the others that it would benefit from some more space to the left. Eric

Lovely shot. Agree with the other comments about the OOF bird and space on the left. Reminds me of one of those stereotypical wall decorations from the 50s
