Nice shot with good detail and colors. I like the wake created by goose movement through the water.

Nice shot. Vey clear feather details. That lens performs well (as does the person holding it, of course).

A great photo, your camera and lens work well together and you make it happen.

Well done - very nice shots. These characters get around; I've seen and photographed them here in Texas and none of 'em liked me at all.

Angky.
Thanks a lot. The goose was in a quite close to the shore area, with grassy areas in the water and also clear areas. I suppose it was taking a break and getting some things to nibble on.

Thanks. I also noticed how the wake sort of added to the features of the shot.

Thanks. The K-5 IIs really performs quite well with my Sigma 150-500 for Pentax. I also have used the K-3 II on with the 150-500, but now I have that on my Pentax 16-85 lens for landscape. The K-5 IIs gives me excellent imagery with it, so for now I am satisfied.

Thank you. My Sigma 150-500 for Pentax and K-5 IIs are capable of really nice images. When I first got my K-5 IIs brand new years ago, I was kind of surprised at how accurate the detail was in the images I was getting, and I still enjoy the camera and how capable it can be.

Thanks a lot. I appreciate that.

I am about 60 miles from the Canadian border, so I see these type of birds sort of frequently. Sometimes they will swim around close to where I am on the shore like this one did, and sometimes they will act kind of wary and take off.
