    Default Blue Goose Close-Up Flight

    Here's a tight crop of a Blue Goose from the Bosque. They are a welcome addition to an all-white goose morning!

    I like the light and the wing position was captured perfectly. Details look great as well as the exposure control. Well done!

    Perfect wing position and exposure. I like tight crops, but could also imagine this a little looser.

    I like the tight crop, wing position, exposure, IQ and BG. Excellent image Doug.

    The feather detail is great! The background and crop present this bird very well

    Excellent feather details and sharpness, Doug. The background is very nice. These guys are hard to shoot as there are just a few mixing up with hundgrds or thousands of white ones.
    I did not get the nice background this year.

    Perfectly exposed, tack-sharp and a desirable BG. The crop is a bit tight, I'd loosen 'er up if it were mine---and I wish it was.
