I am not much of a bird watcher, but seeing these majestic bird take flight over a lake on a bright day, makes you really appreciate them. I was coming back from my morning walk with my camera to take foggy photos, and they day was getting really bright. I was almost home when I heard a swan couple flapping their wings and water splashing as they took flight, I could actually hear them before I saw them.
I of course had my camera still ready to go so I followed the swans though the lens. They flew really low, wings almost touching the water before they rose higher.
You might notice something different, there is an option to click the pictures open, and view them in their original quality, like intended. You probably know that Steemit compresses images, so they look like shit here, and I hope you click these open to actually see what is happening. I should find a proper image hosting site to use on the regular, do you have any recommendations?
