    The wake trailing behind shows how quickly they were moving; this is a great capture!

    The colours of the background are marvelous as well.

    I love this shot. In addition to capturing the ducks, I like the tall grasses and the soft colors in the water.

    Very nice, EG. There's a quaint and homey feel about this photo. I wonder if they play "Ring Around the Rosy?"

    I love how the reds are reflected into the water making it take on a reddish tone.

    Great action shot, they are clearly swimming along quite fast. Heading towards food perhaps?!
