Took the short drive to the Tri-Lakes nature area, and spotted this pair of swans. I have been back a couple of times, and have not seen them again so far.
This was a reach for the canon 70-200mm f4/L lens as they were on the side of the waterway.
Thank you for in advance for commenting.☮

Why not go out on a limb, that is where the fruit is....

Not only do the swans looks fantastic, but everything else does, too. I love all the tangled branches and the golden grasses...and the turquoise color of the ice. Just a gorgeous shot, Sandi.

ALL IMAGES ARE VIEWED FULL SIZE
While the swans are a reach for your Canon, the background with the fallen and twisted tree limbs makes for an overall pretty scene. Fantastico!

Smile, without a reason why. Love, as if you were a child, Smile, no matter what they tell you Don't listen to a word they say Cause life is beautiful that way.
Very much like the setting on my pic on FB - the scary background and lots of violence lurking in the bushes...

With all my love and respect, Marzena
They are floating in a beautiful setting Sandi - too bad they had their backs to You. It is a terrific shot though.

Life is a Constant Audition
This is a very lovely scene with those brown plants and the dark tree limbs and the two swans. The darkness of the background makes it look even prettier and the swans are more conspicuous due to that.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
The tones set the mood here...R.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
Lovely and moody, at the same time. Great colors and detail.

Looks a bit like a painting Sandi with the deep woods and the swans in front - lovely, moody image.

"What a desolate place would be a world without a flower!
It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome." A.J. Balfour
There are lots of swans near me SAS...somehow the wooded background and earthy colors makes for more contrast and moodiness than just the swans and open blue water that I see...good work on this one.

The golden grass and the dark trees makes for a perfect backdrop for your Swans afloat, Tigz.
Makes me think of a Root Beer afloat. :)

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Even without the swans it would be a super scene.:)
Well done Sandi

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
Looking at the comments above Tigz, there's nothing left for me to say.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Light foot 1967
i do like the elements you had to work with here.. & the colors. your composition is great for the distance you had to shoot from, i love that twisted up stump to the right..it really adds to the interest in the shot. swans are so beauiful and graceful yet another bird hard to get close to unless you wait around. i really enjoyed this one! its got a lot to look at if one takes the time. would make a great one to work into a painting look i think

VIEWED IN FULL *** HAPPY EASTER
I agree with Lyn on this...and I concur with everyone else... the background is a beauty even without the swans but the swans are a real bonus. Good one Pat.
