This is a relatively small portion of the original image. She was ruffling her feathers (which I was a second too late to catch), and looking back to see where her mate was. He was fishing, about twenty yards further back.

I like how you captured her looking back for her mate. Nice catch Doug.

Doug, This is yet another perfect composition. I'm suspicious of your narrative, however. Other than taking your word for it, how do we know that she's looking for her mate? Upon closer examination, I believe that you removed her head photographically and turned it 180°. I can also detect that the water is indeed flowing uphill and that this shot was taken in Africa on the Nile given that one eye of a partially submerged crocodile is visible in the center of the shot.

P.S. Doug, I'm sorry but I've run out of positive superlatives to describe your shots. I am happy that you are posting again on Caedes and deeply appreciative for all of your help and input. I don't have Ed's vocabulary; so I'd rather say something irrelevant than a simple "great shot...well done".

A wonderful capture of catching the geese in action. I like the detail. Very well done, Doug.

Glad I'm not the only one who sees the submerged crocodile. I like the softness of the photo and the colour tones in the shot. Thanks for sharing.

Painting is an illusion, a piece of magic, so what you see is not what you see. - Philip Guston
The turned head with water for a background really makes this photo. The long horizontal framing nicely strengthens the sense of flow in the water's ripples, giving us a calm scene but avoiding a static one. Nicely done. Did you also capture the explosion of water and feathers when the crocodile pounced?
