I was on a bridge and heard something behind me, I turned around and saw this swan coming into land (water?) and managed to get a couple of grab shots, luckily I had some exposure compensation already dialled in otherwise the whites would have been blown.

Canon 20D, 100-400@400, 1/1000, f7.1, iso400, full frame horizontally but top and bottom cropped for pano.
