St Martin Is Drawing Near

The original photo.

The photoshopped versions are all cropped.  
A   I changed the shot to monochrome but applied selective colouring to the orange of the beak and the area around the eye. 
B   No change to shot A except the selective colour has been changed from orange to blue. 
C   The focus around the head of the goose in the centre has been kept but the rest of the photo is taken out of focus. 
D   I used lunapic.com to change the photo into a picture in the style of Rembrandt.

A wild goose chase

What started out as an argument (or possibly a bullying incident)

amongst domestic geese

turned into a wild fracas

before settling down again when everyone left.

Preparing for St Martin

After falling off my bike I haven’t been out much (except for work) and my camera has mostly stayed in its bag. But I’ve been back in the saddle for a couple of days now and yesterday on my way from the dentist (only a check-up) I made a detour and I came across this meadow with about 200 geese – being fattened up for St Martin’s and Christmas … thinking about it like this is kind of depressing.
