Relections on a Mute Swan

[MicroWyred]

Actually managed to get out for a bit when the sun came out (rare event ) before heading to work.

This young Mute Swan decided to head my way and I just like the water reflecting on his underside.

Was he landing or taking off?

Great shot either way, just intrigued to know.

Landing? That's a controlled crash .

Great shot ... I really like the positioning of the wing feathers - I'm thinking flaps & ailerons. I see he's ringed, where were you?

Thank you Stephen and Columbarius for looking. It was on our local pool - he definitely wasn't camera shy.
