Hello NB, great colors, lights, shadows, point of view and pretty ducks, their position in your shot looks well, just I think would be better straight your horizon.

That's a super cool picture.. love the shadow play and the trio walking among them.

Nice picture! The shadow of the trees on the lawn formed a pretty artistic pattern that enhanced the composition. I do not think that the horizon was tilted. The necks of the ducks are straight. The edge of the lawn likely reflected the curvature or slope of the lawn. Does not bother me.

Hello NB,

I came by this photograph quite accidentally, but found it compelling. It was shot over a year ago, and it features excellent composition, colors and resolution. The blades of grass can virtually be counted, and the curved shadows of the branches makes an abstract pattern on the grass. Good painterly eye. Warm regards from Virginia,

Bulent

Hi, I take advantage of yours pleasant criticism to comment this magnificent weaving. It has struck a lot me this photo for various motives, the beautiful sketch of the shades on the lawn, the good contrast, the three protagonists and the POV.
Compliments.
George.

Hello,
I liked the graphical shadows over gren in this photo. Ducks make good model among the shadows.
I made a workshop, since I wondered how it would look like if the upper part cropped to increase the graphic effect of the shadows.
Hope you like it.
Nice composition overall.
best reards

Hello NB,
An impressive shot, shadow of tree on the beautiful green is excellent. Ducks also are put at good position. Beautiful green indeed!
Have a nice evening, Hisashi

hello,
Ithis is a pleasing image with a nice light. I think I would have cropped out the top to just leave the grass.I like shadows and the shapes they draw.
