Talk about perfect timing! What a great capture of this synchronized dive! This should be an Olympic event for the geese! Lol.
Great timing and a most unique shot with excellent detail! What a cool scene!

Such a cute shot! It's like they are doing synchronized swimming. Haha. Great freeze of the water ring. Love that the geese are facing opposite directions and you can see their reflections in the water. Good composition and framing.

I think they are teaching us humans what synchronized swimming is all about! Nice shot. Fine timing! The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

This is very interesting, I usually see them eating the grass from land, well captured to show the geese upside down as they search for food under water. Well focused , the image is clear! Well presented, humorous to view!

Comment from Linda Wetzel
Ha ha ha...synchronized swimming for wild ducks. I like the concentric ripples created by their diving. The reflection of the sky in the ripples creates natural texture.

geese, not ducks.....
many thanks linda

Comment from karen zima
That is a different angle. Both of these geese are diving down to get a meal. Love the way you captured the water rippling in a circular motion around them. Nicely composed with one forward and the other backward. Like the way the light is reflected in the water.

Comment from michiganmike
It is good to see that there are places where the geese still get water plants from the bottom. Around here they tend to graze on lawns, golf courses, etc. where people fertilize the grass. A nice front and back view that somehow seems a bit humorous.

Your welcome

Comment from ArtistCharles
Nice shot and an amusing image. It is always fun to see a group of ducks/geese bottom feeding as the pop o up and down like fishing floats. On my monitor this is dark, which makes the details difficult to see. I like the water ripples. Well seen.
