I tried to get swans in flight today. The fight was between an adult and a mature cygnet. I haven't downloaded the photos, but I think I failed to capture the moment.
HFF and enjoy your weekend, Joe.

The shimmering colours and iridescence on the water is so beautiful Joe. You have timed the shot so well, to catch the swan action, and the row of gulls watching is the final touch to this stunning shot! A belated HFF and wish you a good weekend.
Cheers, Rosa.
