Fighting Swans
I was at the harbour today and the swans were very agitated. I watched them nipping at each other and then one of the swans charged the flock and chased two of them across the harbour
They weren't flying across the water, they used their wings to get their bodies out of the sea and then ran across the top of the water.
The lighting was hard (excuse at the ready:rofl ) as the birds moved from shady areas into bright sunlight. It made some of the shots look very different.
and
Things settled down before I left and I took these
and
I used the shadow/highlights tool in elements to recover blown highlights in some of the shots.

How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
Can you post the technical data on the 4th shot ?
How did you get the background dark like that ?
