Geese love the rain

A graduated ND filter would have helped preserve the highlights instead of blowing them.

The geese, in an odd way, mirror the rocks behind them. Interesting relationship...

i think this would have been more powerful if it were BW rather than color. why? because the colors aren't saturated as much... there is obviously rain in this image and that great but the colors aren't as powerful as the image of rain... 6

Nice shot. You might try cropping a bit off of the left and top to emphasize the strong diagonal lines.(Goose-Rock-Rock-Geese-Rock, lined up with the shore)

Nice shot - very interesting and appealing landscape. Wish the sky wasn't so blown out tho...

I think this would have been better if more of the sky was cropped out to just above the tree line in the back ground.

i felt that a close up that brought out some more detail and texture would have been more interesting, too much gray sky stole something from the best part of the picture

It would be nice to crop out most of the sky in this one.

Somewhat muddy. Hard to get clean shots in the rain, as I discovered with the 100 or so that I took. Did you use flash? Might have added some fill in light on the geese if you had.

7 - Met the Challenge (a photo of this in a time capsule for said year would depict it well for future generations). Criticism; whilst I do like this shot and the 'era', I would like to have seen more character incorporated. You rarely see a color photo of a legionnaire so if you had (were able) to incorporate more of their 'finery' it would have been much more dramatic in my opinion. I also like how you didn't 'explain' or elaborate on the year, it does say it all if you know a little of history. Original. Up to 6 from 5--- Up to 7 last minute look.
