Critique Club Comment :

Composition : I like the placement of the lonely goose. Conforms well to the "suggestion of thirds". I'm a little distracted by the balance of the left half of the shot to the right half. The left side looks fairly crowded, with the foliage and the goose, while the right side is virtually empty. The tree down the middle seems to add to the division and makes the balance issue even more dramatic.

Exposure : While some may feel the goose is a little underexposed, I would disagree. I think it really adds to the 'lonely' aspect of the shot. Well done!

Focus / DoF : No issue here. Focus is well done.

Challenge / Interest : As I was studying this shot, preparing to do the critique, the song played over and over in my mind... The challenge is met and then some :)

My opinion : With the exception of the balance issues, I felt this was a very well done shot.

Why did that spindly little tree have to be there? Super picture without it. 7

Great shot and beautiful scenery! Good color and well in focus. I wish the bird had a bit more light on it to draw your attention to it. I was initially drawn to the water, but still the effect is neat. 7.

Take my comments for what they are worth for I am just a novice with a new camera. Dodo

the tree in the water cuts this photo in half vertically. .. leaving the right side added/unnecessary weight.

Interesting shapes and use of negative space.

nice. try croping the left part even if you have to crop the goose too. this way we only see it and the water wich seems more lonely too me.

Great shot except that tree kind of splits the image into two and it is very distracting.
