I missed this photo, somehow Sheen.. humm.. but, I'm glad that I did get to see it.. it's a fantastic shot of these to different kind of geese. Are you sure that they aren't mating? Loll's.. The photo is terrific in ALL of your camera skills.. excellent sharpness, clarity, exposure, lighting, creativity and framing.. a well done action shot:) Congrats on making the "All Time Best" wall:) Thank you for sharing.. I really enjoyed it... even 'if, I was late;)

I think the goose thought the duck was a bit close to their nest? Geese can get pretty aggressive when that happens. Well framed, good action image.

    At least it is not because of Mrs. Goose. Thanks for the five.

    thanks, maybe the white duck have an eye on Mrs. Goose.
Comment from eileen0204


the perfectness of the wings really makes this picture awesome.

He looks so much bigger than the white duck. hope he was not hurt too bad.

Great way this one is framed as well. Great job.

Comment from Sange


The stop action is what makes this shot unique. You have done well with exposure time getting the wingspan and water splash up. Your exposure however is off. The white is blown out on the duck, which loses details.
And yes, the eye on the goose is not visible. This is why I always say, one must learn white balance settings first, then set ISO, then shutter.
When these things are left on auto, the camera is in control and not you.
Still, it is a fine shot of a goose claiming his territory.
Nice action shot.

impact 5 color 5 lighting 5 mean old goose. See this a lot where geese dont like the ducks in their area and go after them honking and making noise. technical 5 sharp image great detail in the goose feathers, variation of color capture of the turbulence in the water technique 5 like the depth of field, contrasts and composition

Comment from Efffell


Great adventitious shot and you have captured the scene in a memorable way...perfectly composed and focussed...BUT as always I do prefer this type of shot 'flipped horizontaly' so the they are entering the scene rather than leaving it ...COMMENTS PLEASE...Monty
