JuanJ

I took this Sunday while waiting for the annual New Years Day Knaresborough Duck race to start. The people standing on the right are waiting to see the ducks coming down the river. Some poeple on flickr have said this looks like a painting...but no special effects were used in post processing.

Excellent photo Juan! It certainly does look like a painting by an accomplished artist and that adds to the mystic. Again, a fantastic shot.

Thanks for all your comments. Actually the ducks are plastic & they just float down the water. Juan

This is just amazing. I'd print it and frame it and put some famous artist name on it and no one would know the difference ( ;) - well maybe). It's beautiful.

Gorgeous image, Jaun, looks just like an old master oil.

Just ducky!

Actually this is really lovely. I think it must be the color that is reminiscent of an old painting, and maybe the old aqueduct. In any case, it is stunning. Bravo!

those people don't look like they're standing ... aahhh, I get it; they're 'Ducking' !?!

Does this all end with a duck fry?
