Without the hand I think I would have really liked this shot, but the hand and the very rough editing on & around it just keeps drawing my attention.

Valildated or not, that hand just looks out of place and well to be honest, looks pretty bad. I think the idea is good and I really like the movement of the ducks, but that hand drags this shot way way way down. Anyway, still good though but if you would have had a normal looking hand and perhaps a little less colour noise in the ducks it would have potentially been an 8 or a 9 from me even, and I don´t give out many of those so keep it up.

The hand and sleeve seem to be the recipient of the duck's wrath, but it looks like it was pasted in from another image as an afterthought. The high saturation of the grass and the ducks implies that they are the intended subjects, but the drab, flat looking (glowing) hand which lies at the focal point seems anticlimactic.

I like the blurred ducks....the grass is very green and looks lovely. I have to say that the hand is a little distracting, though I see what you were going for. I wouldn't want to be attacked by that many ducks either!

EEK! Evil ducks! Maybe a little too much post-processing on the hand...even for a dream. Cute idea, though!

I like the movement of the ducks but the hand made this image seem too much interfered with....

The picture of the ducks looks interesting but the weird hand with glowing edges doesnt seem to belong to the same photo and so the ducks appear to be "savaging" something under the hand, perhaps this was your intention?

The motion blur in the ducks is great, although the hand looks overprocessed and jars in comparison with the rest of the image.

The motion of the ducks if interesting. The hand is distracting maybe due to overprocessing. It doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the image.
