Gentle, Friendly Swan? Not by a long shot.

Harv

Swans gentle and friendly? I think not. Taken this afternoon at Cobourg Harbour while waiting for the Buffleheads to drift within range (which they never did).

All shot with the 1D MkIII, 300 f/2.8L IS + 1.4xTC, hand held

Fantastic action sequence!

Ric Grupe

Well done, Harv.

Looks like you panned just right. I'm sure that high frame rate didn't hurt either.:D

Harv

Thanks a lot, folks. I appreciate your kind words. This series was a lot of fun to watch and shoot. They reminded me of cartoon characters with their behaviour.
