Photo Details
Poster: BansGran  (see this users gallery)

sooo, once again there is drama at the marsh... I had a swan coming straight for me after a goose... I wish the first head on shot was better.. I may post the pic anyway.. and the one I am posting.. my lens is at 70mm (it is a 70-300) so you get some idea how close he is to me.. his wings are not entirely in the shot in any sense... the whoosh was the most amazing sound.. it was a very gray, rainy day here with only a couple sunny periods.. the sky is really blown out in the pics...(it might even snow tonight..it is 2 degrees celsius as I type this.. eeeek)anywho.. here is my pic for the day...

another really simple one...

plain silver frame and deco edge (recoloured and original) by CAZ from her Totally Grungy contribution...

font is my new fave 1942 report (thanks again Virago, I so love the typewriter fonts)

Terrific!! Nothing simple about this really. Love the little touches, and yes you are making the typewriter fonts look so perfect. Still have trouble getting used to having Trumpeter Swans about (they're re-introduced here in Ohio too). They sure are impressive birds and your photo really shows that off.

I am enjoying your Swan photos! They are beautiful birds aren't they! So he was chasing a goose...must have gotten too close to his nest maybe or just playing tag? Very cool picture and beautiful page!
