Nice shot. Very tranquil.
You're right about the noise. Several swans took off and landed in
front of Grace and me the other day when we were fishing. Quite a
spectacle.

working on a few, but I don't think they'll make the cut), but this

I never realized that big old swans made so much noise when they fly;
you can hear them coming from a mile away. Taken with *istD/Tokina
f2.8 80-200 manual focus. I'm having lots of problems with the manual
focus - by the time I'm focused and get the exposure (no "A" setting,
so I'm on M with the green button), my subject inevitably moves on -
at least the birds do.
Anyway, hope you like this one. Comments welcome.
cheers,
frank
