Greylag Goose (Anser anser)
Gujarat, INDIA

1D MARK IV, 500 F/4, 2x TC
1/320, f/16, ISO640 @ 1000mm

i was set on high aperture because was taking some flock and this chap suddenly took turn that i didnt got chance to reset :)
Also the tones are really blues because of fog in morning on lake and i really liked the way the goose was coming in through the fog.

C&C Much Appreciated.

Nice low perspective on this incoming goose!! Nice sidelighting that gives a good effect. I like the faint tree in the BG, I'm Ok with the other goose, and I can live with the highlights along the wing (although I'd prefer them not there) but I find the coot distracting. Overall well done!

There always has to be that one coot to mess up such shots, right? nice pose with the landing gear down. loved the fog and the BG. light a little too much from the side for my liking....but nothing you could have done at that moment in the field. nice Comp. and exposure.

Very nice, you did very well at that SS (Tripod?) Love the colors of the surroundings. Water level looks like t could use a minor CCW rotation...But that might be me being off balance:S3:
