 Every year for the past 18 years the Tri-City Rotary sells raffle tickets to raise money. The way the winners are picked is the first ducks to the finish line, no random drawing it is all in the river's currant and the fastest ducks win. A huge crane dumps a large container filled to the top with these cool looking rubber ducks!

When life gives you lemons...make ducks! Creative and well done.

What have those ducks been doing to get so dirty?! Perfect title for this image and challenge.

Very nice shot! The only thing thats throwing me off a little, and this is from being super-critical - is the row of ducks on the right. They are a little too uniform for me, compared to the jumble of the rest. Otherwise, nice!

I can't put my finger on what I don't like. Sorry. Everything seems right. It's not the dirtyness or wornoutness of the ducks. I thought it might be the harsh shadows, but they're wearing sunglasses. It might be that there's no focal point in the photo or that the lines don't lead my eye anywhere. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Great shot!!

Their futures so bright they've gotta wear shades. Sorry just made me think of that song. Wow this is some collection and it's great that you had access to them. I love the composition but the shot is over exposed, not bad but a bit. Your focus is good. Best of luck in the challenge.

nice shot, but the beveled border is disgusting
