Great capture and timing but this looks waaaaaaaaaaaay overprocessed.

It's not "waaaaaaaaaaaay" over processed.

It is slightly over processed. This photo was taken during the mid-day when the shadows are very strong and crisp while highlights are incredibly bright. With splashing water there are plenty of opportunity for both. The author attempted to compress the image and highlight the motion/geese. Problem is that gees' color blends with the water and the author pushed it quite a bit to make them visible. A good solution would probably be just to forget about the geese and look at the picture as a whole. Sometimes having things barely visible is much better than "in your face". That's my rant. Enjoy the rest of your day.

Great feed back guys, thanks! I would have to agree that perhaps I went a little heavy with the bleach bypass on this one...
