This time of year I end up making lots of scenic images and I try to use habitat and light for interest. This image was captured at our local 'safe' wetlands from the car, is this working?

Nice work Nonda! The light that you captured is very beautiful and the overall image has a great mood. I'd be tempted to try and reduce the number of subjects...perhaps if you had moved to your right you might have been able to isolate just the five geese (and exclude the OOF mallards). My brain also tells me that this image has a slight tilt that would be best corrected with a 0.5-1 degree clockwise rotation. An easy way to check this is to use the Ruler tool in Photoshop to draw a straight line along the line splitting a goose from its reflection. Then go to Image, Rotate Canvas, Arbitrary, and you'll see a value calculated from your ruler line filled in the Angle box. Just click OK and see how that works for you. Great work using habitat and light to create some unique images!
