Thanks for all the nice comments! I didnt feel this was a very good shot, but I didnt really have anything else to submit, so I figured what the heck. I would have liked for it to be better focussed, less grainy, without the distracting shadow, and with a bit less crop. Unfortunately, neither the subjects nor the environment was very cooperative. Thanks again!

My office park has a flock of geese. Why they walk, we can only guess. It makes a neat picture though.

I would've tried to frame it so that the curb wasn't in the shot.

Good grab shot. Well placed and shows total idea.

Interesting photo!
Great composition too!

Oh, I was dying to do something like this. There's a bunch of Canadian geese where I work and they regularly hold up traffic when they cross the road. Of course, no such luck when I needed it. Sigh.

How adorable!

Nice catch :). The light's a bit strong, but it's sweet.

nice caption but your subjects seem to be running away! animal shots are far more interesting if they are entering the FOV, at least to me.

The birds in the middle seem a little hard to distinquish from one another. But other than that I really like this photograph! I grew up in a area that this was a common site even in the downtown areas, so it holds some sentimental value to me as well. Nice shadows and texture from the road.

awwww too cute! and funny title!
06/13/2002 01:15:00 AM
What a brood! Honk, honk!

I'm laughing out loud! I especially like the adolescents in the rear flank, mid stride. They are too funny!
06/12/2002 06:04:00 PM
Nice capture! The shadow is a little distracting, not much you could do about that though.
06/11/2002 09:48:00 PM
Cute picture
06/11/2002 11:30:00 AM
a little out of focus in spots or it would have been a good shot.

I wish I could see where they are going. Maybe that wasn't possible with the little time you probably had to catch them. Perhaps a lower perspective, rather than shooting down at them? They are hard to catch... I know.
06/11/2002 01:40:00 AM
original, but does not seem sharp
06/10/2002 11:26:00 PM
This isn't an everyday shot... I like it! Great catch!
06/10/2002 11:03:00 PM
That's what my dad used to always say! I love this picture! It is focused well, teh compostion is great, and is shows a sense of humor. I like the way the lead duck looks like he's looking for traffic. A little more room at the top would have given the ducks somewhere "to go."
06/10/2002 10:18:00 PM
heard that before have you?
06/10/2002 08:08:00 PM
Hehe...
06/10/2002 05:42:00 PM
O' I love geese. Nice job.
06/10/2002 05:17:00 PM
Ah yes, it's that time of the year again, isn't it. Nice interpertation of the challange.

Prefer faces to butts, but I know about this nature stuff. Good job! Looks to be two broods, wow, 15 babies and two exhaused mamas!
Photo 9 Creativity 7 Road 9 total 9 (focus is pretty good, action stopped well, cropping etc. pretty good. All in all, well done.)

An adult in the front of the line and another adult at the back of the line, so this is where preschools get that from.
