Default Ducks and trees

I went out again today, to a different duck pond.

I was making my way back home taking pictures of trees. My battery went flat so this was the only one.

They are both gorgeous photographs Michelle and the colours in you pictures are are always so nice. Pity about the battery. Great work as usual Michelle.

The tree's nice, I love the lighting, but whilst the colours in the duck scene are really vibrant, it looks a bit dark and not particularly clear.

Thats a nice pair of pictures Michele and what a shame the battery packed in, however, the second one is my favourite. I love how the light catches the trunk, boughs and leaves, excellent capture and presentation

Great shots michele. The duck pond is really nice, and i like the lighting and composition of the tree. Next time bring your spare battery. , so we can see a couple more.
