Another shot of the beautiful swans I found on Backwater Lake. This one here was the mate to my comical one from the other day. You can view it by Clicking Here Used my 70-300mm zoom and did do some cropping of the image. Sandi♥

This is lovely. I like the shadow on the ice/snow. Great clarity. She looks cold. Thanks for sharing!

I really like this, and the blue shadow is pretty nice. I don't think I would like sitting on the ice like that. Good one, Sandi.

Ummmmmm....I think that Pigeon is frozen there...throw a rock at it and see. Better yet walk out there and see if you can move it.

Very nice Tigz. Reminds me of a boat stuck in the ice and waiting for the ice breaker to show up. Most of my lines aren't very good ice breakers. lol This is good with the blue snow and shadows. Good post.

You and your 70-300 did another fine job! I suspect it was more you than the lens, though! This has been a remarkable series and it is filling up my hard drive. Can I expense this back to you? lol. ~ John
