Day 136 – Fraggle's Otherverse

Day 136

Went for a bike ride to our little wetland reserve, and spent some time photographing a swan who was having a right old clean up. I kept shooting in case he flew off and I could catch him setting off, but he didn’t. However, he did have a bit of a stretch, then went back to pruning his feathers.

Well captured mid-flap, FR. 🙂
The dark treatment of the photo also makes it feel strangely ‘sinister’ .
Nice work indeed.
Best wishes, Pete.
