My Prince by cdonohoue

My Prince

I spent quite a while with this guy this morning. He let me get to within about 5 feet of him - that was the hissing point. He spent an incredible amount of time grooming himself. It takes work to look that good!
Fantastic POV! I love the water ripples and reflection. FAV

Swans are a bit finicky and can be like toothless Pitbulls if you get too close. You grabbed a great shot of him here.

Reminds me of that legend of Narcissus, the youth who loved his reflection so much he couldn't stop looking at it! Great capture, Cathy.
