Belle et intéressante composition pour magnifique cygne pêcheur. Jolies couleurs et bonne netteté grâce à la PdC bien maitrisée. Je ne savais pas que les cygnes attrappaient du poisson...
Very well done !!!

Nice Capture !

Excelent capture and great action. I have never seen a swan with a fish. Excelent work.

Salut Thierry,
C'est la première fois que je vois un cygne attraper un poisson. En tout cas, tu as attrapé une belle image. Superbes détails.
