Photographer’s Note
He looks like he's been around for awhile, experienced and sure of his thoughts. I really think this one looks extremely clever...

barnyard animal. nothing interesting about the pose or the behaviour... it's just a duck head shot. Background distractingly not blurred enough, and ugly to boot.

I like two things about this photo: the detail that you maintained in the shadows (fill flash?) and the overal composition that more-or-less divides the frame into a balanced yin-yang space. However, CedarBough is absolutely right that the subject, POV, and (especially) background are fundamentally dull. The image could definitely be improved by shallower DOF. Keep photographing and try to pick engaging subjects and a POV that is dynamic.
