    Very nice job of handling the exposure to get the white, black and gray all looking great. I like the way you've captured the goose in what looks like mid-honk, with the tongue slightly out. I might be tempted to add some room for the goose to fly into, but not sure how it would work for this shot.

    I also like the "mid-honk" pose and tongue detail and on my monitor it looks to me a bit dull/grey so I'm wondering if it needs a bit more brightness? Lots of nice feather detail.

    Seeing that I am going there on Wednesday I am happy to see some good imaging is to be had:cool: Great mid-honk pose (love the tongue!), and the whites seem OK, like they should be for this fella. I would have preferred a better position on the near wing.

    Good sharpness and a nice calling pose. I find the crop a little too square, and would push the whites a little further to the right.
