@Steven L. Taylor: Man, I gotta get me some better geese! My birds never cooperate.
Although truth be told, one of my favorite pictures is one I took while zoomed very close in on a loon, but by the time I clicked all I got was a very odd swirling pyramid shaped splash as it dived under. Hard to describe but I like it and keep it on my wallpaper rotation queue.
Right place, right time. Well done.
Beautiful.
I’m curious how much waiting and/or running around you did to get this framed so perfectly?
@OzarkHillbilly: Thanks!
@MarkedMan: Not too much. I was already looking to see what kind of reflection of the sunset I could get and the goose just cooperated.
Daaaannnnnggg….
Great shot!

How great is this? It’s so great that it looks fake.
Amazing photo, as usual.
Thanks again, I look forward your Friday photos.
