I really like this picture, but the background really distracted me. I was really focused on trying to figure what was going on than the two ducks.

Only in chapter 2! Goodness, when did the betrayal of trust comes so early in a book? Very novel idea. Composition, lighting, and attention to detail are spot on. The two duckys in the foreground are in excellent focus and their colors really pop off the page on the dark background. Love how you have the weeping woody (complete with a hanky to cry into!) The Weeeping Woody is regulated to the background not just by the physical location but because he/she is not in as sharp focus we get another sutble visual clue that he/she is an odd man out in the relationship. A good idea that is executed well: 8
