I still trying to get used to the 7D so there have been tons of geese in the area so while they are still here I am trying to take advantage of it.

Canon EOS 7D w/ Canon 500 4/L,
1/3200 @4.5 ISO 640

Thanks for looking

    Looks good to me to. Like the composition and the subject. A blue phase Snow goose is a treat in CA. Seen one today but could not get a decent shot of him.
    Nice capture indeed.

    Thanks for the comments. The blue phase is pretty common here in the winter.

    Jim, I like that photo! Such nice light on their heads, and the sky is interesting, too.

    I'd agree with previous comments and also say that the oof background adds some interest (imo) without being distracting - as the colours don't clash with the main subject matter.
    If it was my pic, I'd consider levelling the horizon (+ adding canvas) and bringing out a tad more detail from the areas in shadow - just to see how it looked.
    Nice job :)

    Nice capture and Paul's suggestions are on the mark.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
