Description
Approaching a swan in the wild is difficult and not without danger. This swan however accepted me to approach and to watch her (or him) and her(or his) hatchlings. An unusual situation which I used to take a picture of the mom or dad from very nearby.
BTW: on second thoughts I think it is a male because of the way it's head is shaped.

Unlike me when one tried to keep biting my foot. Very good close up.Lucky you still have an unscratched lens.
Lovely swan and excellent capture! :)
Excellent macro portrait of this swan, Oskar :)) I never had this opportunity and I think you have been lucky to be "allowed" by him to go so close to him :)) The colours are beautiful too : love the contrast between the white and blue of his head :))
Just lovely they are full of grace
Impressive closeup, so close! Excellent work!
