Interesting framing of these birds. Great color and good detail.
The reflection adds to the image as does the water movement from the swan. Well done.

I have seen this scene many times and the goose always seems to get away. Most of the time they flee to land where they are more mobile than the swans. A fine shot with great reflections and beautiful color.

Love this! Great shot capturing the chase... the subject is priceless. Love the water trail left behind the Swan and the reflections of them in the water. Great lighting captured. Thank you for sharing.

A beautiful stop action picture of the Canada goose "running on water" as it prepares to take to the air with the Mute Swan racing on the water, trowing up a lot of spray determined to to see off the Goose for the last time. The spray frozen by your fast exposure. Both birds reflected along with the sky on the surface of the lake near you. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Good luck in the contest.
Susan
