You are so lucky to have white swans to photograph. I would be right in my element here. I think I would have to camp out till they were all grown up. I love seeing them tucked in under mum's wings. You have captured this family beautifully Ellen. #9432093Laura E. Swan May 28, 2011
What a capture!!! Your timing was impecable, Ellen! The colors are so rich too! So very sweet.Love it!
