To be honest, I find these images uninteresting. They seem to me to be little more than snapshots, taken from wherever you happened to be at the time.
I feel a more creative angle could have been used. Perhaps with the camera lower, closer to the water.

Thanks for the comments
I could possibly have got a little lower. I was sitting on a wall at waters edge, but the water was about 2 feet below.

I agree the subject is not that interesting and I was quite happily snapping away at all manner of things. What appealed to me here was the mix of; transparency and murk in the water and also the shadows and reflections.To be honest, I find these images uninteresting.

Steve,
What adds interest for me regarding shots on this forum, is some data about the camera settings, lens settings etc.
Folk are often asking for examples of various lenses and these shots may fill the bill (NOT a duck joke!)

Where's your sense of creativity man? Surely you could have found somebody to grab your ankles whilst you dangled over the edge. Thanks for the comments

Actually, I'd have shot just the water, no ducks. Images like that, with a bit of work, make great backgrounds for other images.

Agreed. Camera model and lens used ought to be a minimum. Other EXIF data can be made available later.Steve,

But then, I guess that's what the gallery is for.

Actually the only people around were kids out on a school trip. Spent a lot time trying to keep them out of the frame
