These moments come and go so fast. . I am often left with the thought that something would have been a good shot. Excellent timing, Alun. Those swans are fearsome when roused.

Geeze Alun, this is outstanding, 'in motion' and stunning, you must be very steady when you take photos, like a surgeon (or it that a sturgeon lol ok stupid joke :)

Swans never do what you want them to do,and when they do, they do it too damn fast,that plus those high speed Ducks make this the cracking shot it is. :>)
