David,
This is much better with the goose as the center of interest
filling more of the frame.


Hmmmm... I'm not sure, Venture, how the goose fills "more of the frame". This photo is identical to the smaller version, except for being at 150 dpi, which makes for a bigger screen image. The first version posted was from this scan, but reduced to 75dpi for faster loading and more reasonable size.

No matter... I'm glad you liked it! :)

We have many Canada Geese in this area and I have
done many paintings of them. They are one of my favorite waterfowl.

You might want to check out my other goose shot... at

Do you ever get any Wood Ducks in your area? They are my absolute favorite.

Woodie's are very rarely seen here... though the do turn up.

The Harlequins are reasonably common, but **very** skittish, and if near the shore, start swimming out to see as soon as you hit the beach. Even with the 400/f6.8 and a 2x extender it's very difficult to get much more than a black dot in the center of the frame.

Cheers!
