went for a walk yesterday with the sun shining and temperatures rising i decided to get on the canal and check for the signs of spring, ie flowers, ducklings, and lamb etc. although i didnt catch exactly what i wanted the end result was rather pleasing.



















thanks for looking

Nice shots Danny!  I like the one of the airliner, you can see its own shadow in its contrails.  Excellent!  Cool

Great shots Danny, love the zoomed jet and especially # 1 with the geese pushing that wake of perfectly mirrored water ahead of them. Excellent!!

Excellent set Danny. Love the reflections of the geese, I hope you don't mind me saying, (I've missed this trick myself)... that would have looked simply stunning with full reflections of all three in that mirror water... amazingly still water. The zoomed shot of the plane is excellent too.
