Water Colour Swan 2

A Mute Swan (Cygnus olor) at the Whitlingham Lake, Norwich. As an Outdoor Education Centre Whitlingham has a lot of equipment for messing about on the water. I noticed that the boats, canoes, buoys, flags, barrels, and sails stored on the opposite bank created an array of brightly coloured reflections in the water. All I had to do was to wait for a subject to show up so I could utilise these colours in my images. It wasn’t long before a Mute Swan glided towards a patch of weed and after repositioning myself, to ensure I maximised the water colour effect, I was able to get this image.
