I surprised these ducks (or should I say, they surprised me!) along a small creek and was just able to catch them against the red willows alongside the creek before they got away. I didn't have time to make any adjustments to the camera before shooting, but I thought the shallow depth of field I was using just before surprising the ducks gave this image a unique quality.

Thanks for looking...

Kari,
lovely shot. The quality of the light and the shallow depth-of-field make this a very special image.

Thanks for the great comments, everyone. This was one of those shots that just happened... but I didn't honestly know what I had until I got home and downloaded it onto the computer. I wish I had a little more room on the left side for the ducks to fly into... but it didn't happen - and I'm pretty happy with it anyway. Thanks again.
