[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It is a case of 'mind your backs' as a large Whooper Swan comes in to land on the lake. This one was landing at Martin Mere and has just touched down applying the air brakes.
Taken with the Canon 1D mk11 using my 600mm f4L IS lens with 2x converter at 1200mm focal length. Dull day so probably a slowish shutter speed at f8, Remote shutter cable. EXIF files for 1D camera are lost.

Hi Peter, good timing on this. A wonderful action shot with an excellent POV. Nice and sharp with good exposure on the white feathers. Great shot.
