Shouldn't the title be more like... "Another Snowbird Stays in Cali" ???? (I THINK they come from Canada).

Nice pastoral scene with great DOF. Could benefit from some postprocessing to tweak the contrast and remove the color cast.

Geese! Cute cute. I like this one- it's a little bright, I wish we could see everything a little better but good job

well now, what has happened to that sky? Beyond that, you have apotentially good scene here - the light, especially on those more distant trees, is lovely. A bit hit and miss in the foreground, i think - perhaps if you'd shot from lower you would have a happier composition? Just that change of a couple of feet in point of view can make an extraordinary difference. But that sky colour wrecks this shot for me, I'm afraid. 5

This is a little too hazy for my liking. Good subject placing.

No - they are cows! This is a techical gem - great composition, exposure and focus. The paster-like colors are very pleasing. Without something closer to the lens, it's a bit weak for showing deep Dof - but I still like it!

Cute, very clever title. Pretty scene; appears a bit hazy on my monitor.

A bit overexposed, the haze in the background makes you lose the Deep DOF. A graduated neutral density filter would have helped here.
