These swans came straight across to me when I stepped down onto the edge of the lake – obviously looking for food, I thought…but no – they marched up out of the water hissing at me…charming!
Had a quick run across to Shotley Gate this lunchtime…I was looking to get some long exposures, but I prefer this HDR shot because it gives some idea of scale with the (actually quite large) yacht sailing past. These ships docked across the bay in Felixstowe are huge. I could
