    I like it. You have some nice even tones in there from the well controlled exposure. What I might have done is try and find a more interesting angle to shoot it from... for example getting down low would have allowed you to isolate it from it's background more so and really make it stand out. Thanks for sharing it

    Hi Kathryn_Loiuse,

    You realise, of course, that getting the "lower angle" and from the perspective
    could involve getting a wee bit wet

    Also, another of way of doing your shot (from the same perspective) would
    be using a bit of flash to, ideally, reduce or eliminate the shadow from
    the head of the goose OR, if you use PhotoShop CS2 or CS3 or CS, try
    using the "shadow/highlight" function (found in the Image) to lighten up
    the shadow area

    Or as a different shot completely, you might get really lucky as I did last September
    and get a bunch of them landing at once:



    Cheers,

    Jack

    Hi Tony,

    I have seen Canada Geese a lot of places in my travels but,
    granted, I think you may have a point there ... because I have
    never seen "as many Canada Geese" as I have seen in Vancouver ...
    ... and here are a few C_G's trying out for the Cirque du Soleil:





    Cheers,
