Default Lonely Duck

I tried to capture the duck in the water but it got out before I could get my camera ready!

Hi Soojin, welcome to DPS, nice shot of the duck - I love the green colours in the shot.

Cheers,

Very nice shot of the pond, though, and the duck is not in an objectionable pose. I hope the pond is close enough that you can go back and catch the duck in the water. I love the shades of green in the image, too.
