Very interesting shot Bill,
Love the wing action and the open mouth capture. The reflection is really neat also. It looks like another one had just taken off just moments of ahead of this one. Well done!!

Hallo Bill
Congratulations. I think that this is an great photo. The mirror image of this bird is stunning. The still water makes it possible to see the colour and the details of the bird in fine detail as if with the real thing, and is quite impressive. The way you have captured this goose is great as we can see a clear show-off of its striking wingspan. A great presentation with good focus and details. Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards
Anna

Hello Bill,

Matt.
