Swan in full plumage

 

Swan LakePhotograph of a Swan

This nature photograph was captured on the Exeter Canal about 12 months ago. Its a very traditional photo of a Swan standing its territory during the breeding season.

The camera used was a Nikon D40. Even this entry level camera has captured great fine detail in the swans plumage. The image was adjusted slightly to increase the contrast, showing more feather detail.

Nature photography is very challenging and it’s an aspect of digital photography I would like to explore more. I do need some larger lens as well as other equipment to help me out, but in time I will achive this gaol!

I have seen some great macro photography out there of pupating insects. I will hunt it down and share it with you.

If you are an armature nature photographer, please send in some images to share.
