great tones and shades of blue. I really think you should have gotten rid of the side reflections though. 8

Just a bit closer (more of a closeup) on the duck would have made this better. Nice concept

I really like the idea behind this but because the duckie composes so little of the shot is not the main subject. It comprises maybe 3% of the image and so it gets lost in its environment. The main focus becomes the slide for it dominates about 70% of the composition - and it is excellently focused and lighting is good on the slide. Because the slide has become the main focus it makes me think of many of those well done, interesting, but overdone escalator shots I have seen at other art sites. I do like the angle that you composed with this shot. It adds visual appeal. This composition has such high potential but it lacks the main subject which should be more visible in the scene. One suggestion would be to have used duct tape on the bottom of the duckie and stuck it further down the slide such that it would make up 40% of the composition. In this way it would make the image visually appealing because it would appear, to the viewer, that the duckie is shooting straight for us! Everything else would remain the same but to keep a good Depth of Field such that the foreground AND background remain in sharp detail you would have to play with a higher aperature setting of anywhere from 8 to 16. I have to sadly say that this composition is just average BUT if the duckie was more of the central focus it had/has the potential to move into the above average category.
