Can't leave out the good light...

If you have followed my blog since a while you know already that I can't resist to make a click if light has something to offer. It doesn't matter to me if it is even a critter I photographed already many many times before. We have plenty of opportunities to shoot Canada Geese here in Eastern Iowa so I don't think we have to shoot them in bad light. Today I made another visit to the John Deere Marsh because I was hopping the Northern Pintails would be a little closer to shore than last Sunday. More Blue-winged Teals had arrived and the pintails were just among them. They seem to prefer a particular spot in the lake that is unfortunately too far away for my 500mm focal length. However, the geese across the boat landing appeared in great light during dusk today and of course, I put the legs of my tripod into the mud and tried to capture the light again...
