It's been raining a lot recently so I wasn't expecting to get decent light, but sometimes you just get lucky.

That's a wee cracker, especially the muted light and colourway, fine piece of imagery.

That is a Beautiful image! I love the layers of background and subdued look.
I also really like the scattered look to the Geese and various poses they are in as they land. Nicely Done!!

Love it! Beautiful setting, soft colours, and plenty of action with very stately birds.

Terrific shot! I think this would make an extremely difficult 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle.
