Cute composition but it seems oversharpened and then it seems like there was too much noise reduction used. Try a more natural looking photo next time, sometimes natural is best.

This looks a little over sharpened IMO

I quite like this, and the title made me laugh, too!

Neat image appears to have taken some of the texture.

The duck's feather details look kind of odd here. Perhaps a result of oversharpening, but I'm not exactly sure.

Nice capture. A little too much saturation and maybe too much sharpening, but other than that nice. Good catchlight in the eye. Maybe cropped a little too tight as he has no place to go. I think he should have more open space in front of him to accentuate the feeling that he might move that way. As it is the end of the pic is right at his nose and it sort of imprisons him there.

Good colors but the overuse of NI or whatever noise program just gives it all a plasticky feel to it.

Just a tad fuzzy but I really like the contrast of the ice and the water - makes for a very nice setting to display the duck.

I don't know how many noise there was in the original image but the too strong use of some denoise software have destroyed too much details.

I think you went too far with the editing on this image.

Nice shot, good job capturing the bird leaning in. There are a copy of pieces that look like they might be a little over processed.
