    hah! Actually got away from home for a bit and when seeing CG's gets me excited (every mud puddle around here has a group) I've been cooped up too long.
    This was one of those strange weather days, temps not bad, sun, but ice crystals in the air, really makes for some strange AF issues.

    High point..I did get to try out my new Gore-Tex insulated bibs...super duper!

    Hi Nonda,
    I like the capture. You got good action here. My recommendations would be to balance the composition more. I would take about 1/4 from the top, and 1/4 from the left of the frame, and adding canvas to the bottom and to the right of the frame. This would balance the reunion of your fine feathered friends and would make it more of a pano, concentrating the focus on the main event ...congrats...:cool:

    Just for you Gus:-) Good ideas, but I didn't add to the bottom which would be better,my mouser is on the fritz and in PS it really stinks.

    Hi Nonda: love your capture of the Canada's, big Geese that average about 5 lbs super action photo and I agree with Gus expanding the bottom canvas.

    Thanks for sharing

    Hi Nonda: Does this make sense, added canvas bottom & RS, then placed reflections under gueese in bottom. Quick idea of what it might look like . . .

    Hi Nonda I was thinking on evicting the lower four birds?

    Did a quick work up I'm sure would look better taking more time evicting the offending water fowl :)

    Like your repost UG. I did add to the right and cropped left and top just not as much of the latter two as you did. Gave up on the bottom since mouse is not playing well with others.

    Alfred we crossed! I like the 'missing birds' missing, much better..Thanks

    Like how you've captured the two coming in for a landing Nonda. Like the crop with some of them removed. Good exposure and pretty colour in the water!!
