A very artistic feel to this shot Yves. It looks like you were very low to the ground. I really like the way you managed to capture the action.

Thanks Debra. The wooden sidewalk just allow to clear the top of the small bushes. I love the water bubbles on that shot.

This really has an otherworldly feel to it, considering how close the geese were to you and how large they appear to be as they hit the water. Great focus on detail here and an interesting story. Well done, Yves.

Thanks Heather. The speed was not a problem because my camera is always set to 1/1500 in case of a fast action shot. Glad the Hi-Tech automatic in those camera can do a very good job.

Description
I was quietly looking at the water for someting to shoot when that pair of Canada geese (coming from behind me) almost brushes my shoulder to crash lands very close in front. I'd say that was my fastest shooting ever. (taken april 14 2025)
