Taken at a neighborhood lake earlier this month on a foggy morning after a cold front. Canon 1DmkIV, 70-200mm @ 70, 1/1000, F 4.5, Av, ISO 1000.

I can find some things wrong with the image, but overall I like it a lot. I like color is what does it for me.

Reminds me of the scenes we see here in SW MI. Sad the wings are torn up. But do like it.

Neat looking image with fog adding lots of mood to it.

Although I like the reflections, if mine I would crop them out to get more out of trees and fog in bg.

I would also look at increasing contrast perhaps using USM.

That one wing sure is tattered.

I really like this image, and I liked it from the moment I saw the thumbnail. It does however need a tad of rotation. If you line up the goose's left dangling foot with its reflection, you will see it it a hair off.

I would not add any contrast or crop if it were mine. I love the moody feeling of this one and the reflections.

Love the mood and the image design and especially the BKGR trees. Bummer on the heavy secondary molt of the left hand bird.

I love the mood, calling poses, colour, and especially the tree line above...way cool!! Bummer about the wing, as stated before.

Many thanks to all for the comments and suggestions. I have several taken earlier in their approach that do not show so clearly the missing feathers but the composition is different. Will work on these some.
