    I captured this image at Lake Morton in Lakeland, Florida. I am not sure if this is a captive or feral bird, Florida has both. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

    Love the soft light, clear water FG, painterly OOF water BG, colors details and composition. Might lighten the eye just a skosh. TFS

    That looks like a huge Greylag Goose! It should be a captive bird, I have never seen those proportions on the birds here in Sweden.
    Nice calling pose, nice details on the bird and lovely pattern on the water. I like the light too even though it is slightly from the side. I think the shot would have been even better from a lower shooting angle.

    Nice view of this loud honker. Details look pretty good. Like the open mouth. More room behind would have been nice.
