[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
A Cygnet sat on the mothers Swans back (under the wing)
Taken at ETHEROW park. Canon 1d mark 2n with Sigma 100-300 lens.
This is the 10th of around 20 shots of the Cygnet on it's mothers back. I could have used a shorter focal lenth lens as they came very close, but the 100-300 is what was on at the time. Hope you all like it.
Check out the others in the sequence if you like this one.

Hi Mark,

A cute youngster under mums wings,well cptured,with good details and colors,well done and TFS,

Paul

Tons of "awwww" factor! Personally I would have preferred a slightly lower POV looking more into the cygnets eye rather then looking down on it.

Lovely shot. Very well exposed (sometimes difficult with white birds). Well composed. Good POV.
