 Cloned out a distracting duck and cleaned up some goose do-do. Levels and USM applied.

Oh, and the egg? It was a plastic egg left over from Easter festivities. I taped it shut and spray painted it gold. My wife fed the ducks to distract them. I set a piece of bread and the egg down together. ...And then snapped away while the goose (...er, gander?) approached the egg.

Thanks for looking, voting, and/or commenting.

Very clever concept, and well shot. The large overexposed expanse of water takes away a bit, but it's still a good photo.

You got the goose with that one! Image is nice but the very white reflection behind the bird hurts a lot.

Wasnt the goose that laid the golden egg from Willy Wonka? I don't think this is a fairy tale...

As far as the photo is concerned, I believe that you could have burned the water to match the right side, right now its being blown out. other than that, ok colors, good focus.
