A gorgeous shot of the Canada Goose in flight. Very well photographed in good lighting, sharp focus, and good details and clarity in your image. Good camera techniques and nice stop action shot. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing.

I guess I didn't see this one before this contest. Wow, look at him just cruise. Huge wing span. How big is their wing span on average? I hear the geese hiking overhead when they are flying either north or south. It's like whoever is the head of the V formation calls out the battle cry, and they all join in. I've had geese that would live in our pond or follow the dog around, but never in full flight wing span. Only enough of a span to chase someone off, running, wings flapping in a tizzy and honking in anger. This guy shows that he can put it cruise control and glide with grace.

    Thank you so much for the great review! Their wing span is 50 - 73 inches. There is a park a few blocks from my home that has a pond and a creek. That's where I took this photo. There are many Canada Geese there in the winter. Sometimes a group of them will just fly away. I don't know where they go but I think they come back later or the next day. When I'm at home I enjoy hearing them honking as they fly over my house.

Good lighting and angle here. The colours come through so well and background works so well to make the opposition pop out. Overall good impact and thanks for sharing on far

This is lovely. The clarity is so sharp and shows a great amount of detail. The definition of the wing feathers look good. The action is captured perfectly, and your exposure is very nice :)
