Oh, I do like this one! The water looks almost metallic, and the focus on the duck is wonderful -- she looks so soft to the touch. Wonderful textures and colors!

"Blue Waters" sounds good, or Sleepy Blue Waters as she looks so relaxed she's almost asleep. Very nice!

I just love the way you have a representational object--the mallard--set in a background with an abstract quality--the water. That meeting of disparate elements is so pleasing. My eye explores all the wonderful textures of the mallard and then moves to the color and texture of the water, back and forth. I could look at that all day!
