What a lovely shot, John! You really got the swan to stand out nicely from the blurred background.

Wonderful capture, Bill! That's a tough shot to make, for sure.

These guys are across from the house.
They always take off before the Sun crests the ridge and they always come back well after sunset.
But this morning they actually flew up into a bit of Sun on their way out :)

The backlighting there makes for a really special image

Thanks Mike, I was really lucky. It had been completely overcast all morning and there was not much about. But as this one flew in he brought a tiny little gap in the clouds with him. All I had to do was add a little contrast and set WB in PP.
