Description

After starting from the shore we move upstream. The first hundreds of kilometers are still in a flat landscape. Here we find this breeding swan that proudly is taking care of its offspring. Minolta X-700 (Agfa 100 CTi, 300 mm and cropped) Thanks for your attention and your always valuable comments

Your style may be compared to someone famous, get used to hearing it! However it is YOUR style YOU have developed. The switch to Agfa with it's neutral tonal balance works well for this shot, the swan has a nice color to it!
