White Angel
On my last day at the coast i visited a lake next to the sea with a couple of hundred Snow Geese on it,Nothing much happened apart from a wonderful sunrise and as i was about to leave i saw that the sky on the horizon was white and within minutes a couple of thousand more geese flew over and seeing the guys below dropped in but within an hour they had all gone-off to an inland lake that i had visited previously-right place right time

Usual Nikon gear

Hi Dave
That's nice ! You can feel it "coming in" so to speak.
Good exposure on the whites too.
Cheers

Great capture. The sky is a bit bland, and it rather appropriately looks full of snow to me. Excellent exposure on the whites as John says and timing is spot on.
