02/22/09 - A Lucky Grab Shot

Still experimenting with B&W conversions and decided to try this oldy-but-goody made with my 1st camera - a 2 MP point & shoot. The geese saw me before I noticed them and took off. I heard the honking & flapping and just pointed & shot (that's what P&S's are for? No?). It all happened in a second and was over - & I was lucky. In the five intervening years I visited this pond and geese hundred's of times and have never made an image with those geese that comes close to this one. Who says that luck doesn't count?
