Canada Geese (Branta canadensis)
Fairborn Community Park, Fairborn, Ohio
"I have not even begun. I'm chasing the light and a vision I had. This what I'm after."
After a cool and misty morning gave way to a sweaty and sunny day. After trekking through the back woods for white tailed deer and other various subjects, I made my way out of the woods. Just when I thought all opportunities were exhausted, I sat by the nearby pond for a better part of an hour.
I was partially obscured by a tree and my telephoto lens and camera mounted to a tripod very low to the ground. The late morning sun was beating down leaving me sweating after hiking for miles since that misty and foggy morning. A gaggle of about 30 of these Canada Geese were congested to the side of the pond closer to me. I situated the sun towards my left side and watched through binoculars as geese were bathing and in the nice and cool water. This is one of many exposures made during my time by the pond.
