Description
I probably could have thought up a better title for this, but it pleases my warped little sense of humor that nobody will be able to say "Ducks at Dusk" out loud more than once or twice without getting it wrong.
:P
This is from the day Denise and I were at the Arboretum. Somehow this turned out looking darker than it really was, but this time I didn't do it! This is pretty much what I saw straight out of the camera.

Great shot with the ripples and reflection, well done...
Ha, it is actually easier for me to say, "Dusk at Ducks"...??? The sky is really dramatic as reflected and your two ducks just are off in their own little world:) Good one.
this is really beautiful. I love reflections
Wonderful shot!
Hmmm, yes, that could get turned around rather embarrassingly!! Kinda like the kid I heard in a grocery store who yelled, "Mom, I wanna truck"--only he used "F's" for his "T's" and everyone around just cracked up. Mom just slunk out quietly!! Anyway, this is a peaceful, calm foto, and the deep tones just make it more so.
Wonderfully moody! I've always been fascinated by things reflected in bodies of water; it's always like you're looking into another world from wherever you're standing, and it's funny to see ducks floating past that other world. It often makes me think that if I look up, will I see giant, webbed duck-feet paddling through the clouds as this world could very well be a reflection seen in a pond or puddle in the real world. Ah, sometimes I wonder about myself. I love the light/dark components of this. There's color, but it all seems so muted, which heightens the mood fantastically! The clarity is amazing as well. This is a wonderful piece of work! I tried that "Ducks at Dusk" thing and I was able to say it aloud quite a few times, but it made me very glad I wasn't wearing dentures...they'd have flown out and beaned someone for sure!
This is nice..like the reflections and ripples in the water...places like this are great to get the blood pressure and stress levels down..
Very nice. I like the reflection of the sky and the ripples. The ripples remind me of a poem I used to read as a kid by James W. Foley called "Drop a Pebble in the Water" It was a favorite of mine. It's a little sentimental for my taste these days but the message is good.
Very nice Tara!!!
Great reflection Tara, the ducks seem to be just chilling out in their own little world!
Great capture!!
What a lovely scene this is Tara. So calm and beautiful. I love the reflections on the water, but also on the water plants.
I like Chips idea of giant webbed feet! When I look at your photo I can hear the sounds that lakes at dusk produce, without the insect bites! Lovely.
:) I kept thinking 'dusky ducks'~ Nice shot and I love that you amuse yourself... cuz I can relate!
Wonderlike foto Tara en die atmosfeer is fantasties! Dit lyk so rustig en kalm! Jy is 'n ster vriendin! grin Ek het jou lief!!! xx
Terrific image!>fav
superb light and mirror
Good reflections here.
very beautiful reflections, great shot!
I love the whole overall dark green tone of this; the darkness works well to accentuate the light reflecting in the water. And you got a shot I didn't get! Awesome!
wonderful and moody reflection! impressive capture! ;o)
nice shot my friend
I like the title very much I do beautiful capture, Tara May I really like it too warm hugs that smile, Linda Kaye

You are so funny! I've tried to say it more than once, but can't repeat how it came out! It's a beautiful picture - love the reflections!
Gosh you know how to make us Dutch feel dumb! LOL Dusks at Dutch :| Nevertheless a great reflection composition Tara.

Fantastic cloud reflection...the ducks look good too.
