Description

1/750s f/4.0 at 40.0mm iso100

Taken at a local art fair last weekend. The kids area had a rubber duck game which consisted of all these little duckies floating around in kid sized pool. The man was curious why I would want to take photos of his ducks, but said "go right ahead." There was full sun at the time, so in addition to coverting part of the image to B&W, I cloned out/ or healed out a few hot spots as well. Other than that, the photo is displayed as shot.

Thanks for the nice comments. I debated on the title for this one for about a week before posting it. My first thought was "Outstanding Bill", but that didn't work for me. Then my sister suggested "Discrepancy" ... and then I modified that to come up with this title. I find it difficult sometimes to get good titles for photos. I would almost prefer to let a photo stand on it's own (without a title) so the viewer can see what they see without any inference from having a title. #1303301
