 I saw these two beautiful swans in Blackrock Park and was taking pictures of them for about 5 minutes. I was really lucky to get this shot as this swan was rising out of the water and flapping his wings. This was definitely the best picture of the bunch.

Great shot, too bad there wasn't more light to play with on those beautiful wings that you have frozen, arched so majesticly.
