    Sharp shots!

    #1 Unusual pose, I like it.
    #2 Good use of depth of field and the diagonal. I’d crop just below the top duck. Maybe allow more space to left of the closer bird and less space on the right.
    #3 I like the mirrored flight.
    #4 Clarity, smooth feathers – nice. Would be better if they were facing the camera, but hey, ducks don’t perform to order.

    A suggestion – try varying the iso and speed. Bring the iso down to say 100 if the light is good.
    Slow down the shutter speed a bit. Depends on the light and whether your subject is moving.

    Happy shooting.

    Thank you :)
    would you believe that number 3 is actually 2 birds not 1

    I don’t think that these are a bad set of photographs. I think that there seems to be quite a lack of detail in the shadow areas though eg: unable to clearly see the eyes of the ducks. It may be possible to overcome this issue next time by using flash to pop a bit of light into those shadow areas.
