As I’m trying to put some organization around my rather substantial set of images, particularly those that I don’t mind showing to others, I came across a rather old one that I still like (although I am much more aware of its flaws now than I was 20 years ago).
This shot came about during an autumn day, when I noticed the light had a certain quality, which drew me to take a quick drive to the Quinapoxet river in West Boylston to see what might present itself…
When I got there, I saw that the light was reflecting rather nicely in the river, so I got down as close to the water as I dared. There were these three Canada geese paddling around, so I started taking a series of shots of them, most of which had very little alignment among the geese. Finally, I did capture them going in the same direction, which is this shot.
For the camera nerds among you, this shot was taken with a Canon EOS 10D using a 75-300mm lens. And I still have this camera, although it has been retired from active duty a long time ago.
