Hello everyone.
This winter I saw this one individual hanging around a bunch of Canada geese. From what I understand it's not very common in our area.
At first it was very shy, but then seeing how the other geese behaved around humans became very bold and was able to get some pics of these
lovely goose.
C&C welcomed and encouraged.
Nikon 300s l Nikon 300 2.8 w/1.4 tc l ISO 500 l F9 l 1/1250 l Multi Segment l Manual l Gear on Skimmer Pod.

Good comp and nice low angle. Seems to be lacking detail a bit. Don't know why.

Posted wrong one.
Is this one better?

Both images look the same to me. It's a very nice image of this species.

Repost looks sharper to my eye.
You have a nice low POV and the eye looks great.
I always like a goose or duck picture where the foot is visible in the water so bonus points for that!
Maybe a bit more of a head turn towards you would have been nice but I am getting picky!!

The second looks a bit sharper to my eye as well. Nice composition and colors. I've heard of a few here and there in the south Texas area, but have never seen one, so thanks for sharing!

The difference is minimal between the two, but details look OK to me. Nice photo of this local rarity for you.

I can see a little diff between the two. Looks better. Nice capture with perfect exposure and detail. Congrats on a different capture. Well done
