A while back – before the ice melted on the lake —
Stormy pink clouds attracted my attention.
Among the reflected clouds,
I saw a feathered group of swans,
Enjoying the dawn.
They remained there for a long time,
As if frozen to the ice.
Later on, they were gone
And only their memory — along with the clouds —
Remained.
For more n-ice shots, please visit: Skywatch.
Swan lake is a superb name, so vast and colourful.

I LOVE these photos – especially the first one, the dock makes the shot perfect – oh my, you do have the eye!

All three photos are beautiful, but the first one is spectacular with regard to color and contrast. Some of the elements like the clouds have a fuzziness and dreaminess in their translucence and they contrast dramatically against the outlines, deep and opaque colors of the dock in the forefront and red home or barn along with the white swans in the distance. It holds my interest quite well. As always, a great eye for a great shot.

Whistler Swans and Tundra Swans have all been migrating over head or held up in secluded fields and marshes for bad weather to pass. Every time I’ve been close the weather was rotten or I didn’t have a camera -but have the memory an that’s whats counts.
