p.1 #1 · Incoming Swan


This pair of mute swans decided to fly in my direction while I was walking around Kissena Lake here in New York City.

Comments and suggestions welcome,

Morris

I'm having a hard time choosing between 3 and 4 Morris... 3 for the better head sharpness, and 4 for the bigger and more elaborate splash zone, heh.

Terrific set of this heavyweight landing. For some reason I am reminded of the also too-heavy-to-fly Spruce Goose, heh.

Thank you Eric,

The Spruce Goose also took to the air. Just imagine if he had modeled it after a swan :-}
