Snow Swan

My son is a reluctant photographer. One winters day 3 years ago, when Tom was 9 years old, we went to Whittlingham Lake so he could take pictures for the EDP Nature Watch competition. He only took 18 shots before retreating to the warmth of the cafe and the lure of cake. Amazingly one of the images was this picture of a Mute Swan which won the competition. Usually, successful wildlife photography takes a huge amount of time, perseverance and dedication. This shows that, when all the elements come together, this isnt always the case and gives hope to us all! You can have your cake and eat it!
