About "Close-up of a Nile goose"

by Joachim Dirk Kruse

About the artwork

This captivating macro portrait presents the head of a majestic water bird, a Nile goose to be precise, in a warm, almost magical atmosphere. The focus is razor-sharp on the animal's profile, with the bright yellow eye with its dark pupil standing out in particular and lending the view an intense depth. The texture of the brown-grey plumage on the head and neck is visible in great detail.

The bird is embedded in a picturesque setting created by the very shallow depth of field. The background is a soft, blurred veil in light brown tones. The foreground is dominated by a dramatic, bright orange-yellow colour. These blurred, almost flowing patches of colour create a wonderful bokeh effect and frame the bird like a fiery autumn wreath or a veil of falling leaves against the light.

The composition uses this intense ring of colour to create a strong contrast and visual depth. The lighting is soft, but the yellow eye almost seems to capture the light. The image exudes calm and an intimate connection with the wilderness, capturing a quiet, observational moment in nature. It is a homage to the beauty and detail of wildlife, emphasised by masterful lighting.
