Senior & Cygnet in the Sun

Uploaded: July 21, 2012

Description

One of my two favorite Trumpeter Swans with this year's cygnet. They have had as many as 5 in a year but this year they only had one (or only one survived.) The sun was very bright and direct plus the vegetation was tangled and tall so it was difficult to get a decent shot but this one turned out OK.

Sony DSC-R1, ISO-160, f16.0, 1/250, FL=71.5mm

Exif: F Number: 16, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 10/2500 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 160, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 71.50 mm, Model: DSC-R1
