Thanks Wendy.

I had to put the camera on the ground to get this shot.  I was very glad the S100fs has a flip out screen or I'd have been very mucky!

Brilliant shot Jo, I almost entered a geese family too but looking at this Im glad I changed my mind, this ones a cracker, a real eye catcher.  It gets my vote of approval.

So long and thanks for all the fish

Such a pretty photo Jo, and a great angle which really shows this family off.

A wonderful capture which I hope does well for you.  Good Luck  and Happy New Year. Pam,

Smashing pic again Jo!!

Edit:  Thanks for comments Jo - It's a private residence now - started off as a windmill I think - then as a water tower for the town.  Was up for sale a couple of years ago for £1m + I think (A couple of close-ups in my profile of it taken when I had my S5700 first- haven't got the energy now to walk up the big hill to it).

Took my entry when trying out my S2500 - from a few yards from here.   Didn't come on this site till afternoon to find what theme was then just looked through Picasa and found the first one that fitted the theme - I'm getting fed up with Fuji not announcing the theme till the comp starts - I could have got a bit closer & cloned the wires out - just straightened & cropped it - didn't even sharpen like I usually do!!

Great low angle Jo. Superb clear detail and texturtes of the soft gosling down. Love the colours and use of light and shadows. Could see this in an ornithology book.

Happy New Year.

Good luck.

Many thanks for the encouraging comments.

The little gosling ine the middle has a mouthfull of food.  My elderly mum was sat in her wheelchair throwing enticing bits for them. 

So it was teamwork really Wink

Hi Jo

Not put one in myself yet, still thinking about it and, I don't usually comment until I have!!  But on this occasion,  I thought I had to.  I love the idea,  the angel, the compostion and really,  everything about it.  An absolute cracker (quacker) of a shot.

Well done you. Superb.

XXXXX

PS:  As this is the last day of the competition, I am going to put my head on the line and say I think this will be in the top three.  I bloomin hope so anyway.

Love the low angle of this shot Jo. Amazing colours and textures with excellent sharpness of detail. Yes the flip screen comes in handy at times. Very well done and best of luck.
