My fifteen year old son, Peter, got a camera for Christmas. Yesterday was a beautiful spring day in Cache Valley, so we decided to drive and take photos. Canada Geese by the hundreds were flying in and congregating in the newly uncovered fields. (As you can see, it's still snowy here, but many of the farm fields were thawing out.) This is a panorama shot he took, and you can see a couple of geese flying in the upper left. I taught Peter how to merge and adjust the 5 images in Photoshop. Hope you enjoy.

Wow! Better watch out Dad he's going to put you to shame if he's making images like this starting out. Very well done. I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree after all.

Do not know about the geese, but was just struck by this high quality wide angle landscape view ! Gave it the highest marks in the voting boot just now.
Congratulations on the merging ! i use autostitch (free stitching program) but now i learn you can do it in PS as well. Great work and thanks for the posting

I for one find this image very fascinating. I've never tried stitching and here Peter has managed quite well at such a young age. Then again he has a great teacher.
Please tell Peter I think he did a marvelous job.
We nned more exceptional young fellow photographers.
