quack quack

The pic in its original form did not come out very well. A combo of low light, high zoom, a moving boat and no tripod made it poor. So I thought I'd play around with it in PS. Strip the colour, except for the duck and utilize a boatload of unsharpen mask on everthing but the duck.

Great effect.

thanks Deano.

 

there was a layer of very thin ice (pic taken right out ice-out) - also a chunk to the left of the duck. that didn't come through in the picture very well.

 

it's next to impossible to fish AND pretend to be a photographer at the same time
