If lost try asking a Swan for directions
Taken earlier on in the year. This made me laugh when I viewed it so I thought it would make a good upload.

Haven't been active much with giving comments on the great images being posted plus I haven't been out at all with the camera much due to workload. poor excuse I know but it's true :rolleyes:

Thanks for looking :toast:

D2X - 400mm AF-S F2.8
ISO 320, F5.6, 1/250th sec
SB800 with flash xtender attached
Taken handheld.

Nicely done Vince!

Head-on shots don't always work for me, but it suits the subjects position and caption nicely.
