We’re lucky to have very distinct seasons but I think fall is my favourite.  The changing of the leaves can make for wonderful photo opportunities.  When I sat down to process this photo I cropped it quite closely to highlight the goose.  I continued with my usual edits but wasn’t happy with the results.  Looking at the photo again I knew that the goose wasn’t the subject of the photo, but an important element of it.  The colour, the light, and the mood the scene evoked were key.
