@Marion: She did, eventually ;) Thanks Marion!
Wonderful. It makes me smile, Lorraine. There appears to be a certain fear on the part of the giver.
@Michael Skorulski: You just never know when they'll snap ;) thanks a lot Michael!
I like the framing here, the lady giving the chip definitely looks a little fearful of her feathered visitor! :) Nice catch

@MJ: Hi MJ they were, she has to step away slowly...;)
Very funny shot. The woman seems like she's in a concrete bunker and that goose doesn't seem in the least afraid. Nice capture.

@GJC: Thanks GCJ he was just waiting for her to move away from the fries ;)

25 Apr 2008 7:23pm
@bronzebilly u.k.: lol well not me that's for sure...as soon as the lady moved away (and of course, left the fries) then he jumped on it :)
very unique photo Regards

@Irwansyah Sk3tchw!nd: Thanks very much IS :)
I really like the composition. That brave woman has a very nice pose.
25 Apr 2008 8:26pm
@Michael Rawluk: She was very sweet Michael, she moved away slowly after having deposited the fries and moved bak lol thanks always :)
Bet he can't eat just one! Great shot, B&W is perfect for the shot.
25 Apr 2008 11:28pm
@Barbara: I know I can't lol thanks a lot Barbara ;)
excelent shot!!!!
26 Apr 2008 4:33am
@Hans: Thanks a lot Hans lol ;)
Here the geese and wild ducks are not that willing to approach so close! I think European birds are hunted more in France and Spain, in our country they are protected but they don't see difference between French and Dutch of course. "Fries" is in Dutch "inhabitant of Friesland" :), or "Friesian". Nice B&W capture with contrast between soft and vivid life (goose, woman), and dead and massive concrete (bench and table).

@Illuci: Your comment is always so interesting, thanks a lot Erik, I appreciate that you take the time to really look at a photo :)

@yiannis krikis: I appreciate that Yiannis, thanks :)
What a neat capture - wonder if the goose took it...reminds me of the commercial where the animal wanted ketchup too LOL
26 Apr 2008 10:59am
@Janice Thomson: I love ketchup...but not on my fries, on rice actually...how weird am I lol and YES he did right after she backed off, thanks always mon amie ;)
Nice one! Did he take it? :)
26 Apr 2008 3:13pm
@Ina: Yes indeed Ina, right after she moved back to her seat ;)
