Comment from avmurray
It almost look unreal when green duck weed is covering the water like this, but the ducks seem to like it a lot slurping away. They are probably even standing out better than they would against ordinary water.
The photo is pin sharp showing really clear and well defined details in all the birds, and the exposure is just spot on.
The format and framing is perfect, and I like how you managed to keep all the ducks within the frame. A truly lovely and well taken photo Grace, and with an excellent DOF.

It actually reminds me of pea soup just the right colour. The shot itself is a good one, very colourful, and with heads ducking and diving and looking up, quite amusing and a bit of fun. Great focus and use of light, nice central composition.

Doesn't the color of the water just make you want to jump in!? Haha. I do like the photograph and your description of the photo because they look like they are swimming around in split pea soup haha. Thanks for sharing this :)

:) Hopefully they did't end up as Peking Ducks!:) Nice shot! The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Looks like your mallards were eating and swimming in pea soup! Your fine and central composition grants us a good luck at your fascinating scene. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Nicely done!
