Banking Goose

At my local pond in Pretoria, there are a couple of sweet spots with regards to light and BG's. In this, I managed a shot against a distant foliage BG.

Nice capture Stuart. I like the pose and the fact that you have a foliage BG. Nice colors and the bird is exposed well with lots of nice detail. I like the comp too. Well done

the first thing i liked about the image was the composition , good sharpness and a great shot against that distant foliage
nice image Stuart

Very nice detail and the lighting is lovely. Looks like Autmn.

The BG is awesome Stuart and a nice bank it is!

Great exposure Stuart, I like the way the bird pops off the background.

I like the sweet soft light, excellent wings position, perfect HA & IQ.

Awesome BG Stu, and the goose's banking pose is pretty neat too. Quite sharp. I would not mind a bit more details to the far wing's blacks.

I like the sharpness, banking pose, composition and BG. Well done Stuart!

Excellent flight pose you have captured, Stuart Sir.
Love the way bird pops up against very nice BG,wing position,colors and composition.

Great shutter speed, froze him in place, tack sharp and great light.

Thanks for your comment Jack.

Great pose, nice sharpness, and a colorful BG. I would try to pull out a little more detail in the blacks.
