Duck Cruising through the Water (redux)

Last year, I posted this stamp filtered image of a duck cruising across the water. I rather like it for the "Loch Ness Monster" feel about the image, playing off the shadow that you get with the stamp filter.

The graphic novel version of the same image, which I also like, leaves no mistake that it is a bird (and not the Loch Ness Monster) in the image, giving just a few more details perhaps than its more shadowy predecessor. As far as a favorite goes... I still think that I favor the first image. Thanks for stopping by!
