Description
Very excited to announce that "Snow Geese At Willow Point" has won First Place in the "Q Is For Quantity" contest on Fine Art America, 11/12/17. Congratulations to the other winners!! Many thanks to contest administrator, Luther Fine Art, and of course to everyone who voted for my image!!! YAY!!
I was lucky enough to visit Willow Point Trail at the Middle Creek Wildlife Management Area in Kleinfeltersville, PA for a photo meet-up with Lori Deiter and other dear friends a few years ago. We were there to witness and try to capture the scope and excitement of the incredible migration of thousands of snow geese as they prepare to go north for the summer.
Middle Creek has counted as many as 150,000 geese at one time. I don't know how many we saw the day we were there ... but it was a lot!!!
In addition to the snow geese and photographers (haha), visitors to Middle Creek also include thousands of tundra swans and Canada Geese as well.

Beyond the sheer majesty of the flocks, I really enjoy the diverse layers of color and texture. There is a natural hierarchy inherent in this image! Great capture! L/F

That's a great shot, Lois! In addition to the colors and the theme itself, I especially like the slightly abstract character that emerges. Happy Easter and a beautiful spring time!
