 Ok well the spot on the ducky’s head facing the camera ( the one in focus) kinda looks like the spot on Mikhail Gorbachev’s head so I ran with it. BTW when I saw these Duckies “Eye Contact” by jjbeguin came instantly to mind. That is how I approached it as I pushed the shutter, and that’s how I processed it. Information just for shits and giggles.

Yay! I was one of your 10s, thought this was absolutely brilliant. Now that you mention it, definitely see the influence of jjbeguin's shot. At the time, I thought this was an unusual take - post-Cold War duckies - and well-processed to get that point across.

It's sould like a Far Side cartoon. I wish the one in front staring at the camera was in perfect focus.
