Finalist
I met these guys at a very old farm we stopped at on our mini vacation earlier this week -- first time I had ever seen really domesticated Canada geese. This is pretty much the shot I wanted -- geese in foreground, barn behind -- but they were SO friendly, it was hard to get enough distance to get the shot :)
