Biting Swan at Chapel Bridge (Kapellbrücke) - Lucerne, Switzerland
About this photo….
This feisty swan came in for a taste of my camera. He eventually got my lens. No harm no fowl. Pun intended LOL. Photographing animals with a fish-eye lens is always an adventure. The focal distance is so short the subject can be with in inches of the lens and still be in focus. I was aiming for more majestic images and got some during better lighting conditions, but this photo just makes me laugh. Have a great weekend!

lol.
I love it!
Incredible shot. This is really funny.
Ha! I avoid swans. I have childhood memories of being attacked by one.
Pretty birds, but nasty tempers.
Great shot, tho. I’m afraid that I don’t have the nerve to get that close. 😉
LOL at the picture but even more so at you letting the inner geek loose on that pun 🙂
better lighting conditions with incredible photograph seen here in a real fact very enjoyable !!!
