This is one of the more unusual takes on the challenge, and a hauntingly lovely one. Strong score from me.

That twirling mist makes this image absolute perfection in my eyes. So soft and hushed...very nicely done.

Wonderfull silhouette. The water is just perfect. I just love the fog and the colors. One of my top 10 picks of the challenge. The duck is not perfectly silhouetted there is still some color and depth to the duck. That is my only complaint that stops this from getting my 10. Still an awsom photo. Spectacular job. 9

Wow! I really have a soft spot for good duck pictures I love the dreamy effect of this with such a great reflection of the silhouette in the water. It looks like there's smoke on the water. . . a really cool effect! I love this picture!

The mist looks great and you have captured some lovely subtle patterns in the water. Good shot.

Very neat photo. Nice crisp duck. Beautiful textures in the water and smoke. I do notice a LOT of colors in the water. Oversaturation maybe?

I love the effect in the water. Very nice. The duck himself doesn't appeal to me much.
