p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Swan after sunset


I visited Jamaica Bay National Wildlife Refuge Yesterday. It was relatively quite day as the more popular West Pond Trail is closed for repairs following the repair this winter of the breach created by Hurricane Sandy a few years ago. The East Pond is less developed so not as popular. In the few hours I was shooting I saw three other people on this warm February afternoon. The sun had set and this is frequently when the best things happen and on this day a swan swam up to us.

7 stands out Morris. From 3 through 6 it almost looks like the swan is melting as it spreads out ~ Ron

What beautiful images, Morris! I love the light, poses, and detail of these images. Numbers 1, 2, and 7 standout to me, but all are very nice.

Thank you Ron,
I guess it was relaxing and getting ready to sleep and that's why it looked like it was melting.

Thank you Keith,
The light was certainly terrific and I had just enough of it to get sharp images as the swan bobbed up and down over the ripples

Thank you Jim,
The first is with flash, then I turned it off to capture the pritty pink glow on the swan's feathers
