Modern Moonies - Greater Snow Geese

The Fall Greater Snow Goose migration is in full swing in the Quebec City region.

Always a challenge, it's fun to try to capture the geese as they pass in front of the moon, which I managed to do late this afternoon.

This is a family of geese, two parents with their two 3-4 month-old goslings. Whether flying in line or in file, the geese usually fly with the parents on the ouside with the young in between.



Formatted to my 2:1 format to remove excess sky below and above the principle subject.

Canon 5D Mark III with the 500L f4 lens with the 1.4 Extender II, handheld @ 1/1000, f11, ISO 400, + 1/2 exposure compensation.

Cheers,

Mike
