2010-09-16 311 London Hyde Park Swan landing in Serpentine
It's really difficult to get one of these shots, but today my luck was in! The light was favourable, and this bird chose to land close to me and in a favourable position with regard to the Sun. I even managed to minimise the local overexposure that one so often gets with Swans, which, being predominantly white, throw a lot of light at the camera.
There were a couple of swans that were being chased off by a third one; however they kept sneaking back and the 3rd one continued to chase them off, so I was able to get a lot of shots.
I've a similar pic at:-
