Generous remarks. Thanks! The cut off top limbs haven't bothered me. Possibly because I've always been extremely pleased with the position of the geese relative to the tree and the bottom of the frame. This is full frame (top and bottom) the bottom of which just barely clears the grassy slope at the tree's base. Had I pulled back, I'd have complicated the scene and reduced the size of the geese. Feel so lucky to have gotten the camera accidentally positioned exactly where I would have chosen had I been able to position the geese as decoys. Shot a couple more frames, but nothing. The scene had come apart.
