[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken earlier this year, I'd not gotten around to editing this batch of images of a Canada Goose bathing until now. I like the action in this one, the water splash and spray as it was dunking itself and the view, through the water, of it's head. There are some fascinating images I got as it is emerging, with water sheeting off the whole body, but I am just not satisfied with the quality of the color in any of them. If I ever come up with a decent edit I will post one.

Hello Mish,
Wow, what a splash! Very well-timed capture of the Canada Goose showing fine details of the plumage and lovely colours while half-hidden by water splashes. A really good shot!
TFS and regards, Ulla

Hello Mish
This a great capture..its all action and as tight as you like!! I look forward to you attempting a good edit to show the sheeting water!!
Best Regards
Paul

What a shot!

hello Mish

I like TOO the action in this photo
(j'aimes également l'action dans cette photo)

it is the kind of action and movement photo that i like

i think if the head of the goose where out of the water with this
action of water splashing, the image would be more dynamic

a BIG tfs

Hi Mish.
What a great action shot. I am amazed with quality of it too. Terrific sharpness and details. Excellent exposure parameters and wonderful colours and lights. Subject is amazing, water spray, water surface and plumage of the goose are reflected perfectly. Bravo, Excellent job.
