Midnight (Swan) Express by Luben Solev

Thames River at Reading, UK

This shot was taken around 1 hour after sunset using my 717. It depicts a lot of very hungry-looking swans in their element - the river Thames. The swans look a little like pink flamingoes due to the risidual light of the setting sun. Hope you like it.

PS: One more interesting fact about swans is that in the UK they are under the direct protection of the Queen, so technically you will be in a lot of trouble if you harm one of them.

What Queen ruler is that?
I cannot imagine.
