Bar-headed Goose

Previous Next

I waited until the bird lifted its head out of the water before taking this picture. The resulting drop of water falling from the beak adds a sense of movement and activity. The other picture elements - the colour of the water and the reflections in it, and the placing of the three blobs of yellow, came together in the way I visualised before taking the picture.

This image is one of a series taken at Arundel WWT during "Photographing Nature at the Earnley Concourse"
