Greetings from the Critique Club.
I like the line of the shower hose in this shot and perhaps a little of the water on the bottom left of the photo. But to be honest that may be about all. The subject matter lacks interest to me. And the technical merits of the photo IMO do not really do anything to improve it. What I am trying to say, is that if you take an ordinary subject, then I think it is really improtant to present it in a 'wow' sort of way. If you have an extrodinary subject and present it in a plain way they may balance out. If you get a great subject and presented great...then you have a really fabulous photo.
The highlights on the duck are really overexposed and I find the part of the tap where the water comes out from distracting.
Sorry to be so hard on ya, keep up the efforts.
Lynn

The lighting seems too harsh.

The image is very sharp, sexy and poster-like, but your title is no movie. It just describes the picture.

Nice and clean shot. Good lighting. I don't understand the title, but I guess that's because I'm a Dutchie, lol.

now if you could tell me how you'd turn Duck Plug Clogged into a feature-length film (or even a five-minute short), I'm sure I'd be fascinated. ahem. this seems like a bit of a shoe-in to me.
