[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Here he is, Jan the swan man (and on the background his lovely wife Meri). A fiew days ago I met them again at the location where we shoot the swan pictures. Jan was feeding som bread and complaining that the swans also always eats his fingers.
Lateron we shot some pictures of the swan flying tyowards the photografer. I whistled and the swan started but Jan was so upset :=) that he forgot to push the right button (no NIKON).

Hope you like this actionshot. Maybe nice to know that Jan, me and the swans met at this same place a few years ago after getting in touch by Treklens. We didn't know we were living nearly nextdoor.

And that's not all folks. The famous Green Baron also went on safari. In a breathtaking action he cought one of the swans with his bare hands! He got the shok of his live and never showed up again.

very natural capture with fine and clear focus.good POV

Haha. A picture of myself showing here on TL.
Too late captured Henk, or do you not want to show the one where he is eating my fingers ? haha
But its a very nice shot. I see Meri is feeding the just borned duckies.
I will catch you back.!
Have some nice ones where you are running over the plarform to get the swan flying behind you, so I could take some action photo's.
Yes not the best settings I used, we have to do that ones more, haha
Groeten van Jan
