    Duck on Misty Pond

    This was taken in the morning and there was a heavy mist over the pond, made some pretty light. This is not cropped, should I crop it closer? What about the vignette, is it too dark?

    C and C welcome.

    A pleasant duck photo, nothing wrong with the crop apart from maybe a tilt to level it. I like the vignetting but as you obviously suspect it is a little over done. Try and get some life into the eye.

    I wouldn't crop it at all. It is good the way it is. I would, however, lighten the vignette ever so slightly. Otherwise, nice shot of a hen mallard.

    Tell me that this wasn't the only shot that you took for it is great, in spite of it being...just a duck.
