thanks Bryan! I was into birds a lot for some time, but that has chanced since I have kids :)
I still remember this photos. I was sitting on my camera case sourounded by swans and this one was extremely close not scared at all. I felt like one of them.

thanks so much Joann! The inspiration for my photos really come from the joy I have with my family. I'm glad a little bit of the emotion is reaching you.

Wonderful capture! Your portfolio is fabulous! I so enjoyed viewing your images! Your children are beautiful and you have captured their many expressions of childhood with the heart of a dad and the lens of a professional.
Such a pleasure!
God bless you and yours.

thanks Carsten! Yes this was a little lucky. I had no way of framing that except guessing. And there was not much time to try different things.
Just for the life LCD view I'm thinking about getting a P&S digital again.

Really impressive, Her Majesty. You were lucky to be received in audience, and chose the frog perspective, accordingly. Joking aside: very good idea with the perspective and skillful aiming and handling of your Nikon. For such situations a digicam like my good old G1 or successors with a flip-out LCD are unbeatable. With my DSLR I forgot this photographic technique almost completely, thank you for the hint ;-)

Thanks James, it was a funny experience to take this photo. The swan was really close and stared at me. I find it interesting that many people notice the water drops. I didn't think they were something noticeable but I guess they are a nice little detail.

thanks Roberto, you have some very good swan photos, also. Actually your portfolio is very impressive. I will need some time to go through it.

Hi Thomas,

das Foto hab ich an der Isar, ganz nahe an der Bruecke zum Tierpark gemacht. Dort sind jeden Winter viele Schwaene. Wenn man sich ruhig verhaelt und Gelduld hat und etwas Futter, dann kommt man sehr nah an heran. Meine anderen Schwanfotos sind an der gleichen Stelle gemacht. Ich lebe seit einem Jahr in LA und werde auch erstmal hier bleiben.

Wow - how did you get the bird from that angle!? I know that swans can be pretty annoying if you get that close.

Also just wanted to say to a fellow Münchner - have been living there for some 10 years. Where did you take this one?

Unique and stunning swan shot. You really have shot this from a great angle. It really makes the bird look so commanding almost like royalty, especially with the "diamonds" of water on it's feathers. Excellent!

Thanks.
