Welcome to NSN! A fine first post -- could you share the shooting details?

This is a composite of 5 photographs. All were shot to create a reality that existed in the back of my mind. The photo was to be used as part of a Christmas slide show illustrating the song "My Favorite Things" ("wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings). Each photo was taken under different times of the day at Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge, Virginia, except for the moon which was taken from our driveway in Southern Maryland. The lighting angles were all shot to match, and the photos were combined for the composite using Photoshop Elements.

Welcome Bill!

There's a lot to see here but it all blends together so well. Very nicely done in this lovely moonlight scene.

Nicely composited. You even got the back light and reflection from the moon.

Welcome!! This is just charming, as so very well done! Quite convincing- I would not have guessed it was such a complex composite.

Hope to see more from you.
