Yes, you!, a photo from New York, Northeast

Photographer's Note

A cold winter day in Central Park... Us human habitants of the place froze and battled the wind (...the ripples in the pond), but these guys seemed very indifferent to it all, casually swimming at their favorite spot... until I aim my camera at them. At this point they stop and stair at me... and here is the result.
Cropped and sharpened.

This shot is beautiful and funny. I especially like the brown feathers and the light on the water. Well captured.

Funny capture, Liora. I love your composition here, and the ripples on the water as well as the details of the birds are coming out really well. Very cool!

Nice Shot! I like the reflection of the water, the good detalis of the geese and the way you took the photo (at their level). I love to photograph them myself. Good arrangement of the geese in the picture. Nice frame - well matched with the feathers. Good job!

I like this shot! Very nice how the birds are all facing the same direction and in the same pose. I think the picture would have been even better with a polarizing filter to cut out the distracting glare on the water.

This is the best duck photo I have seen yet. They really look like if they were doing a choregraphy. Your framing of this group is perfect. I think a little more sharpness to better see the details of their head or to see their eyes would be welcomed but without it the picture is still great.

Do any of these birds live in the place they are named for? we have thousands of them.
Here we see them very clearly well done on training them to work together.
Good picture best yet.

I like the way they all look to camera, and I like the co;or of the water. I like you framing, too.

Great catch! What did you do to make them all look at you at the same time, walk around dressed like a loaf of bread ;-))?

nice squaderon of geese. like the tight crop however feels a little too tight on the right side. funny they are all facing us. adds some humor to the image. the assortment of birds works nice also with the unbalance ot two, two and single bird. very nice image.

Very nice Liora. Great composition and very funny to boot. It's almost as if you placed them there yourself. Thanks, Don.
