I like the contrast of the wing dihedral of the LH swan with the wing anhedral of the other four swans. Very nice capture indeed.

Not an easy shot to pull of with a 600mm I would imagine. Very nice comp Phil. Wish we had sound as well.

I am sure you meant whooper rather than whopper, although come to think of it either could apply. Whichever way, it's a great flight photo.
