the minnesota people on here know about this place where trumpeter swans winter on the mississippi. there are hundreds of them, with just as many geese and ducks accompanying them. quite a sight....and sound. some are with my new digital rebel xt, and some with my S2 IS....

i did a little bit of toning on this one, but they actually were in the shade and the image almost looked sepia without any work

these were done with my trusty little S2 IS. i used the regular telephoto and then added my 1.5x telephoto lens for it. i was pleased with the results, but it's very hard to use the viewfinder and with that lens and my glass which turn dark, i couldn't see for diddly in the digital display...
