Canada Goose -- Day 46

I took Emelyn and Ellise on a walk to the small lake near their house. We enjoyed watching the geese that live there. We got too close for this guy and he and his girl ventured out onto the frozen water. He honked his warning as we approached and after getting some pictures we left him alone and went to see the rest of the flock who was swimming and splashing in a section of the lake that had thawed.

Photo details: Canon EOS Digital Rebel, Exposure time 1/1000 sec, Aperture f/10, ISO 800, Focal Length 248.0 mm, Taken in RAW, Processed with Digital Photo Professional.

Looking really good. Though I would advise you to shot at a lower f/stop (say f/5.6).

Isn't it fun to explore nature with little ones?

Yeah, Hans, it was one of those times when I had forgotten that I set the ISO to 800. So it upped the f/stop to compensate. I need to put some sort of reminder on my camera so I'll remember to reset the ISO. :)

Definitely fun, Triplet, We had a great time.
