Majestic October 26, 2004

The new view has its advantages. There’s the nice light in the morning and early evening, and then there’s the swans and other assorted animals. They’re fun to take photos of.
This shot involves a bit of trickery. It’s actually the reflection of a swan turned upside down (the reflection, not the swan.)

i’m still trying to figure this out. why is the swan part of the reflection so undistorted? very elegant, and very clever, onno..:-)
It’s sort of distorted - the neck is a lot longer than it was in reality and it’s a bit wobbly. It was all luck though. Just managed to catch the water when it was calm for a moment. I took a few more but they were all a lot more distorted.
