Top photo of small waterfall is very interesting with a real metallic look to it and very nice movement through it.

I agree: I like the way that the flow lines take the water round the corner and away from me. #3 is pretty as well - lovely light and more your usual style, Dwayne - but I'm afraid I don't see the point of #2.

I'm with Jeremy on these. The first and third work well, but the detail-less shadow areas on the second spoil it for me.

I really like the first one as well, but that Mallard drake is a little too 'unusual' for this old biologist...

I love the first image for all its qualities mentioned above. The third image is also very relaxing… I'm not so hot for the Mallard duck although I like the light on the grass blades.

I looked everywhere in the third photo for a hidden deer LOL

And you know what I'm going to suggest with the first one. Yep; rotate it so the  lines lead to the water fall.  ;)

for the second image to work IMO you need some light on the duck so it balances the light on the grass.

Cheers Mate, always great to see your work.
