Trumpeter Swans – MN trip

Swan Park, Monticello, MN. The swans were congregated closely. I was happy to make this angelic image of one swan who distanced himself a bit from the "pack".

The sky was gray for most of the time I spent photographing swans in Monticello, making photography with pretty colors challenging. However, I tend to appreciate white birds against white skies so I focused on flight images with a bright sky. I loved the result of this artistic image. The juvenile swans with their darker heads and bodies give  more texture to the image of these "flying angels".
