Goose

[Crusader]

Took this a couple months back, not sure why I haven't posted it until now.

Oh, Chris, what a beautiful picture! Crystal clear and the Goose is so pretty.

Did the Goose "Goose" you for getting so close?

 

[Crusader]

I wasn't that close Used my 70-200, y'know, this monster

But yeah, I like how the shadows separate sections of the path and the goose is right in the middle of one. Also making use of a large aperture to get a shallow depth of field by blowing out the background.

 

[Jazzy]

That's a heavy looking lens. Do you have to use a tripod?

 

[Crusader]

It is heavy, over 1kg. I've used it on a tripod once

 

[Jazzy]

Too heavy for me. I'd never be able to keep the camera steady without using a tripod.

Scared it'd bite?

 

[Crusader]

Those things are vicious!
