Description
This was taken in the canal basin in Skipton, Yorkshire which has been in the news this morning concerning a water shortage.
The cob swan was making sure that the canoe didn't get too close to his nine cygnets (picture posted a few weeks ago in my gallery).

Well seen, well captured, but disaster.

That disabled access sign raises fears in me about taking a wheelchair down that towpath!

Beautiful capture! Looks like a really nice place to go for a little boat ride. :)
A charming place !
fantastic image!
great shot!
It appears to me, as if the guy in the front of the canoe is a bit scared of the swan, raising his arms ? a classic image of an otherwise peaceful Sunday afternoon, enchanting look into your world, BB
Excellent!
nicely captured
Wonderful shot. Do they wear helmets to paddle in or is that in case the swan attacks?
wonderful shot
