Ok, I’m definitely going against the trend…but I like #1. It’s not just about the geese — the gold in the sky is warm, the clouds above their heads ethereal, and the blurred grass on the right helps this photo become three dimensional. Visually, there is just so much going on. It’s my favorite.

Kevin, All are wonderful. I love the composition of #2. The trees offer a perspective that completes a story.

I’ve changed my vote. Now that I’m not rushed at a hotel computer screen, I’ve decided photo #2 is the most compelling. The trees and light in the clouds add interest. Ideal composition!!

I love them all, but I like #2 for size comparison, composition and plain beautiful photography, as mentioned above. #3 because it caught such a special moment and for its abstract quality.

Image #2 really does it for me, although all three images are remarkable. There is a very oriental tone to the entire photo, the tree against the sky is like dendrites in smoky yellow quartz, and there is pleasing balance in the framing of the subject matter. Nice job.

Tough call between the top one and the bottom one. I like the bottom one because it looks like the goose is challenging a storm cloud. But I’m going to cast my vote for the top one because I like its clean, abstract look and the slightly more vivid colors.

Kevin, you were delightful as usual at breakfast at the c. 1714 Pennsbury Inn, where you stayed while photographing Wild Delaware at Winterthur this week. I notice that some of the other inn guests have also voted. I agree with others above, your framing of the goose, the haunting nature and special drama, but most especially, with all the goose photos that have been taken, this one is simply different. I vote for #3.
Look forward to having you as a guest again soon and I will be checking in to wilddelaware.com often. When will you be doing Wild Pennsylvania???
