Today, Quebec City had it's first major snow fall of the season. With a full moon tomorrow, the Greater Snow Geese still in our region will say goodbye and undertake the final leg of their migration south.

This is a very early morning shot at sunrise taken at Cap Tourmente nature reserve last month. The autumn colours of Cap Tourmente's cliffs are a photgrapher's dream when the geese fly by them.

As you can see from my other photos, I particulary enjoy closeups of flying birds, but here I couldn't resist a more panoramic selection.

Canon 7D with 500L f4 lens @ 1/1000, f4, ISO 400, +2/3 exposure compensation.

Formatted for future 8 x 16 framing. This is one frame from a series of about 5-6 frames. You can bet your booties that my wife Louise will use the others as an inspiration for a future painting.

Cheers,

Mike
