Thankfully most of the people now know that it isn't good to feed them white bread and they had scattered some sort of wheat products over the ice. The swans loved it.
The light was really glorious and I was just happy snapping away pics (took 422 pics total in that one hour :P). Don't worry, I made a strict cut and you will only see 47 of them ;) Will post the rest of them tomorrow as it would be too much for one post LOL
Saw this swan at the very last minute so I wasn't able to catch decent shots.
The water droplets looked especially good in this light :)
Frozen :S It was around -20C that day
More pics tomorrow with even better light so be sure to subscribe to my blog if you don't want to miss them. Just reminding you of the new option that I have on top of the page and on the right side now, it's Subscribe by email.
Thanks for watching! :)

Love these! Especially the ones against the light and the one with water droplets on the feathers :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Silja, appreciate the comment a lot! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos Mariann! I love how you can see the water droplets so clearly in some of them. Isn't it amazing how the ducks get along so well with the swans? Around here, we can't get that close to the swans. They are too aggressive! But oh, so pretty to look at!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing them! I look forward to seeing the rest!
Thank you, Cindy! I wonder why your swans are so aggressive. Not used to humans perhaps.
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! They're beautiful shots!! I love all of the detail of water droplets, feathers, and in-flight flapping! :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks Debbie!! :))
ReplyDeleteSwans are so beautiful that you would think that they would be easy to photograph, but "NOOOO". You certainly show us the difference between good pictures and great pictures. These were so good that it made me cold.
ReplyDeleteAppreciate the wonderful comment, Jane! Send me a bill for the hot chocolate that will warm you up! LOL
