Caption / Description:

Looking northeast across Corby Boating Lake, Greylag geese (Anser anser) and other waterfowl enjoy the lake. The lake, located in central Corby, Northamptonshire, UK, is a popular spot for both fishing, and with families who come to feed and admire the ducks and geese.

This photograph was taken using an Infrared filter, capturing light in the 720-1000nm range, which is invisible to the human eye.
