 I was walking a trail around a nearby lake and saw this pair both standing on the frozen water. I whipped out my camera, and soon after, one of the Canadian geese broke through the ice and fell in. The sound of the cracking sheet was incredible.

I have several outtakes that I'll post afterwards. Not sure if this shot will do fantastic (fingers crossed!), but it was definitely entertaining to watch it firsthand.
