Love the concept of the thread from title to subject.
The gift box is beautiful. Crisp, clean, simple yet elegant photograph.

Great work Hayward, thanks for sharing these.

I like them both, but the duck race is my favorite...not just for the ducks, but for the entire photo.

Hi Hayward, I really like the first one. So simple but such a nice image of the coming holiday season. The colors, lines and focus came together perfectly. Nice job... The ducks look like they're heading for somebody with a oaf of bread. Love it. Both are very nice.
