A young duckling was out exploring the pond on a warm summer's day and found itself gazing out in awe at a family of swans. The little duckling was mesmerized by their graceful movements and magnificent feathers. Everywhere the swans went, the majestic plumes of their soft plumage cast an ethereal light over the water. To bring the image to life, I would start with the ducks by coloring their feathers a light grey. The sky should be an inviting blue and the pond's surface should be a deep teal. For the swans, I would opt for a delicate white color with a hint of green or pink running through their feathers. The scene should be brought to life with the addition of the sun's rays shining brightly over the pond's surface.
