        Canadian geese taking flight from a lake in Michigan. My first attempt at hand-held panning. It was great fun trying after I got the hang of knowing in advance when they were getting to ready for takeoff.  I love all the splashes and crazy feet at weird angles!

                      Thanks, Rob! I feel that way about the last one too and appreciate your feedback framing what you love about it. The whole experience left me wanting more. 😀

                          It’s always fun when you discover a new subject those genre of photography that you feel you could love as much as the ones you already do. 🙂

                          Hi Marty such stunning action shots. I like the first one more because of the colourful background and more importantly the water also contributing to the action. Stunning shots all of them 🙂
