I liked the pattern in the water, so I centred the mallard. I broke the rule of thirds but I feel the photograph wouldn’t have been as good if I hadn’t.
At this point in the year (late fall), the trees are bare and on a cloudy day, the water takes on this sombre cast, relieved somewhat by the mallard and the ripples created as he moves through the water.

The Rule of thirds doesn’t rule OK (I’m trying desperately to get into modern idiom here), its a beautiful picture, and a beautiful portrait. A 🙂

It’s a ‘rule’ that’s open to interpretation. Thank you Adrian😊.
