Northward Geese

The annual cycle of goose migration is a cycle of majestic proportions.

These geese were heading north over Kansas this spring.

The color of the clouds added some impact showing within themselves also a change--in color.

Nikon D500, Nikkor 500 mm reflex. 25% crop.

Beautiful image Larry, the color and black & white split in the clouds is fabulous. And the pattern of the geese throughout the photo is also quite nice.
