Our neighborhood has a pond with a few resident black swans. I tried to get a photo of one of them but he wasn’t being very cooperative and the light was all wrong. I really couldn’t even see what was on the viewfinder.You ever try and take a picture of something black in a shadow while standing in bright light?
I think he was looking for food, not immortality on the internet.
Finally I got a flash of color.
Check out Shadow Shot Sunday
They are lovely, swans are so elegant I think…
He does look a little annoyed that you’re in his space with a camera.
I dont think I have ever seen a black swan…very cool photos
What a beautiful creature!
I like the shadow shot. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a black swan he’s quite handsome.

I have allays loved swans – such elegant birds. I loved seeing Black Swans in New Zealand, but never did get a decent photo. I like the flash of orange on his beak.
i love the swan shadow! good one.
You did good, in spite of the obstacles.
I love animal/creature pictures, great pic!
On a totally different note, If you or Sweetie get to hear the T&C speaker on Tuesday night, I would love if you could share your notes with me. We won’t be able to make this one. Thanks. (my email is on my contact info)
GREAT shadow picture!
On the bright side (no pun intended), it’s a great shadow picture!
It’s beautiful! I need one of those to go with my lonely goose.
