~~Conditional~~ support Since this is a set, is the lighting and exposure the same, but the reflections merely different on different parts of the pond, or is the male photo taken in less light? It looks a bit different, but that may be the ripples. I could support each of these individually, but if they're a set, and the exposure varies, we should probably fix that. If you can either assure me that it's just the ripples/part of the pond/angle/whatever, and the ducks themselves have the same exposure and lighting, OR adjust it so they match, I'm happy to support.

- They're on slightly different bits of the pond and the backgrounds are different. JJ Harrison (talk) 09:49, 10 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Support both. I think it's the apparent difference in brightness is due to the male having darker feathers and the ripples. MER-C 11:49, 8 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
