A Couple of Swans - From 10yrs Ago!!

[SamFisher]

I came across a CD that had fallen down the back of my unit that contained images I took 10 years ago with my very first Digicam - a 4Mp Powershot G2
Quite liked this one

A nice shot and no doubt a pleasure to find again.

The G cameras have always produced good results and here we are with 4Mp. Makes you wonder why we all seem to need 18 - 20 now?

Nice image Mike. Like the placement of the Swans in the frame, loved the way you have captured the reflections in the background that helps lead the eye further into the image.

That's about a dozen times I have come back to this shot and still love it, just goes to show it's the person behind the camera that makes the photo (should listen to my own advise sometimes ehh lol)

The only thing that really jumps out at me now I have noticed it is it's leaning to the left slightly and that's just being 'really' picky.

Re: A Couple of Swans - From 10yrs Ago!!

Thanks for all the comments guys

BTW
The G2 cost me £648 which included a 16mb card.
If I wanted a 32mb card, it would have been £57 more!!
There was one on ebay a while back selling for £16 with extra batteries
