 I am not sure many will see the backlighting, and they might not even accept the incandescent lighting...but I think it worked here. It kind of gives it a more natural feel and calls attention to the duck. It is a little different from what I am expecting we will see here.

1-Adjust Levels
2-Brightness/Contrast
3-Curves
4-Unsharp Mask
5-Cropped from orignal and slightly rotated

Cute portrait, not sure about the border but not a big negative IMO.

Lovely, maybe turning the rubber ducky slightly towards the bath would improve composition, not liking the yellow border

Nice image - But a little too contrived for my liking and the backlighting is very small.
