Hi Sean. I was drawn to the thumbnail which looked as if it was a picture of the Photoshop duck sample. The colours are great. Vivid and complementary. The lighting is balanced and the result is pleasing.
Ahhh, sometimes great results come out of practice shots. Very pleasing snap from the ethereal blue to the bright yellow, clean and sharp, true its not exactly insightful, but it wasn't supposed to be either. (Insight into the rubber ducky hehe?) Cropping this to just the bowl could tighten it up and make even more graphic tho, just a thought~
