Cruising

A dreary old day today after yesterday's beautiful sunshine. I was back down by the river with Monty but this time along the towpath to Fen Ditton. Not much exciting photography action apart from some out of focus flying swans and an under-exposed nest-building robin (who may feature at some point on the grounds that he's cute). These swans were hanging around the house boats begging for scraps and came determinedly towards me but I was empty-handed. Anyway there's lots more nutritious stuff in the river to eat. Book club at ours tonight and I've just let a cake burn (which has taken forever to cook and then as soon as I sit down to Picnik....) and need to get the Hoover round so comments to follow ASAP!
Probably thought that your camera looked yummy. :-) I love the motion in the water of the one in front speeding over to see you.

Wonderfully composed! Love the greens, the ripples of the water and the reflection of the swan!

Gorgeous composition with the two-coloured green lines in the upper section and their reflection in the water plus the differently cruising swans - nice!

Beautiful pic Judith - so serene and peaceful looking and I love the shade of greens

See you went for the grey day swan for cheery highlight photo - very nice it is too. The forecast here is for cloud all week. Might loose the photographic will to live this week!

Lovely sharp focus on the swans. Nice greens and reflections.

great swans Judith - like the green to add a bit of colour on a very grey day!

Lovely green reflections on the water - it really makes a contrast against the swans. It was a grey day today wasn't it? I cheated and posted one from my visit to Anglesey on Saturday. I knew I'd get those snowdrops in sometime.

Great greens and the bird reflections are awesome. Sorry re the cake. Have fun with your book club. By the way, how is your shoulder?
February 27th, 2012  
How regal and serene. The water Colour is seriously rich!
February 27th, 2012  
By the time you read this the vacuuming will be done! Nice shot :)
February 27th, 2012  
Beautiful capture of them both :)

Love love love the reflections - almost looks like paint by number. Enjoy your book club - with enough stimulating conversation, maybe they won't miss the cake. Say that Monty ate it.

Love the reflected tones on the water in contrast to the white of the swans!
February 27th, 2012  
I like the way that the reflections almost look posterised. And that green is an unusual colour to have reflected on the water.
February 27th, 2012  
lovely colours and reflections - beautiful

February 27th, 2012

The greens really frame the swans
February 28th, 2012  
Gorgeous...that rich green with black band frame these elegant birds perfectly.

Judith. hope the book club was fun in spite of the burnt cake! The sort of mistake I'd make myself...think I'll just take a minute...then before I know it...disaster!!
February 28th, 2012  
Gorgeous! I like the rich green! Great composition!
February 28th, 2012

Fab shot Judith... the double swan is nice but it's the green that gets me super interested in this image!
