Great posture on the duck - shame this wasn't expert editing - you could have added lots of splashing water behind him!

Now that is one nice even average. Works wonderful for a cover. I can hear the quacking now.

Some say that DPL went too far with this album, trying to capture the sound of radiation poisoning. They claimed that no ducks were harmed during the making of this album, but few believed them.

Your duck does indeed look rather panicked. I liek the treatment of the photograph, and the band name/title combination is quite fitting.

The water is overexposed and would have been much better if the bottom empty strip was cropped out.

Love the high-key feel. Not so keen on the font though, but overall the image is nice.
