Lovely water color - Right?



BUT besides the poor quality of the picture due to the dirty glass over it and the flash burn in the middle of it, what is wrong with this picture?



No! it has nothing to do with hunting!

Which of those three ducks was the model for JimBob's picture? It couldn't have been the small one, but it could have been eider of the other two.

I think that is because it's a hotlinked photobucket image and not one that has been directly loaded.

It has been there for all this time and has been used by MANY people since then.
