The "V" pattern just pulls your eye right into the photo. I might have tried to clone out the small amount of brown earth in the upper left but it's a small matter. Well seen and photographed.

Good composition with them fading off like that. How do they not fall over?

Fascinating that they can sleep like that. Nice dof.

The geese in the background form a nice v pattern and because they are OOF it allows your eye to rest on the image and focus in on the subject goose.

Nice Job.

I'm with the others, I would never have known if you hadn't shown me!

Nice close up shot, though not completely keen on the angle you have taken it from, I think it would have been better if you could have gotten a little lower ans straighter.

Lovely depth of field! The learning part of your subject is always interesting in these challenges

Thanks! Yes, they are usually on 1 leg if sleeping standing. Learning about my subjects fascinates and often surprises me. :)
