Your both correct, I needed to put the duck off center.
I'm probably going to get photoshop in the future, right now I'll just have to use images straight from the camera.
Thanks for helping me.

As Shay comments, the composition is right in the middle and it might give some more interest if you play with moving the duck around (by cropping the image). When I saw this image, I thought of something like limiting the picture to part of the ducks tail and the trailing water behind it, but then again I sometimes like bizarre things. It all depends of what you want to express with the image. In your subscript you mention the strange reflection of the ducks bill, you could also focus more on that in the image, but removing the rest, so you do not need the subscript. Just suggestions that add something special. Have fun. Willem (p.s. you should also add your name to the title field, so it shows up in the gallery overview).
