Whoopie!

Hi
We spent a great morning recently photographing this bevy of whooper swans enjoying themselves in the warm waters of a volcanic lake in Northern Hokkaido.This is one of my favourite images amongst the thousands made. Hope you will like it too :)

Image details: 1DMk4 Fl 70mm f8 1/1000 EV+0.6 ISO 400 handheld ambient light

Loong-Tat:

I am rather partial to swans myself, and enjoyed this image. Like the sense of depth, action. I think the diagonal line of the shoreline is effective.

I wish there was a little bit more separation of the head of the lead bird and the birds just behind it.

We have some whoopers in Michigan, but I only see one or two at a time.

Cheers

Very nice Loong-Tat! I really like the depth and perspective!
