I'm not usually all that enamored of shooting canadian geese being that they're as common where I am as pigeons in New York City. But when the light is good, and a territorial swan starts chasing, it can be worth a few snaps....

    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!"

    National Geo quality on the first one.


    Nice!

    remember that not everyone is on the same flight path. We enjoy seeing images from places we don't normally see or visit. That is one of the many beauties of still photography.

    Thanks for sharing!
