Thank you Krista!
Wow, great action shot. This is a great series.
I think so too. A picture without a story, sometimes just stays a picture.
Haha, its always great to know the story of the photo and the story behind the photo.
Interesting,
Lucky phone call and you were fortunate.
I was lucky that day, I was just walking away from these swans when my girlfriend called me on the phone, as I was talking to her and standing still they started to fight. If she didn't had called me I would have been gone from that spot. Fortunate she tought that the line had broken because I immediately hang up the phone. ;)
Great shots.
They are an agressief species, and to be honest, when the sun is low the splashing of the water makes it a beautifull site.
A shame they need to fight, but it is very photogenic!!! Lovely pictures!
Appreciate your comments on behavior.
