April Theme: Up Close

[Katie Rupp]

There are lots of geese in varying colors and patterns at a local park and this one caught my eye. C&C encouraged and greatly appreciated.

Very nice colors and composition! The eye is also very sharp.

I'm thinking that a bit more crop from the left and bottom might make it even better, because the blurred feathers in the foreground are somewhat distracting... not sure though. Would be worth a try.

thanks
Charles
