Thanks very much Vesna! The best way to insure I see your work is to comment on mine. I comment to those who comment to me first . . . and my friends (who comment to me too) get my time and attention. I have a couple of people whom I am trying to mentor into better photographers and they take time as well . . . once that is done . . . or should the moment strike me . . . I spend time commenting on any images that strike my eye.
So, all in all . . . your best bet to get my attention is to comment on an image in my portfolio! :) And thanks for the vote of confidence!
Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~

The teeth were new to me too Lisa . . . can't usually see them. Geese in Torrance? Simple:
One loaf of bread (per person)
One camera (minimum per person)
One trip to Alondra Park.
Mix all ingredients and viola!! Geese in Torrance!

Hehehee . . . also a good idea NOT to let them behind you and NOT to run out of bread! I've been bitten on the backside before . . . it's a serious pinch and they grip and twist their head VERY hard . . . no skin breakage but a serious bruise even with levis on!

Doyle -- Congratulations on the well deserved BIP recognition. This picture is wonderful: detail, color, humor... and it is educational, too! I knew geese can be "nippy" and I have been bitten a couple of times myself, but the sloppy part is a new one on me. LOL^2 -- I love this picture.
--Best to you, Jan

Wat een geinige foto, beestje staat er echt in een hele leuke houding op.
Mooie doortekening in de nek is ook niet altijd makkelijk om dat er in te houden.
Vind het een hele leuke en geslaagde opname,groeten..riny

I never knew that geese had something looking like teeth! Also look at that tongue with the little spikes maybe to avoid the food to drop out. Just amazing. I probably wouldn´t try to pet this goose after seing this!
Great photo and good tones.
