The Golden Hour is like the Midas Touch in nature. Here the whole pond reflects that pure golden color. So, here's my question...does this Golden Goose lay golden eggs during this gorgeous hour, and if so please tell me where!!

Water color is gorgeous. I would be tempted to crop up from the bottom just a little. Sharon

Thanks, Sharon. I have never seen the water turn this honey gold color before...maybe for once, I was in the right place at the right time. I just wish the water was more placid. Appreciate your comment, and will take your advice about the crop.

Well done. No nits. Except—a larger image makes it much easier to critique. sad

Love the golden water and your placement of the goose Lori. The goose looks a little flat to me, you might try adding some contrast and see if that helps. Well done!

Nice color. Slightly larger image is helpful. But unfortunately no golden eggs, just the same old Canada goose poop if these are in nuisance in your neighborhood.

Longing for a larger image!
I like your placement in the frame, but would also crop up a bit.
The goose seems a bit "flat" so some added contrast would help.
Very nice image!
