Resting after flight

Posted by JJ (Jersey City, United States) on 15 October 2010 in Animal & Insect.

So after seeing the geese fly in I stayed in the park a little longer and got a few shots of them, this being one of them

Thank you for taking the time to visit. I really appreciate all your comments, and welcome any critique as I am learning the art of photography, and having a blast with it

Someone off to the right must have food ... they are rushing toward it. Great shot, JJ.

The pattern they created helps make this a successful shot. The "food is off to the right" theory may be correct. In any case, they grouped in a nice formation for this shot.
