Swans on the Canal
Swans will often stretch one of their legs whilst swimming and instead of putting it in the water, they will tuck it up onto their back. The large surface area of the webbed foot makes it easier for heat to be transferred from the body to the air, cooling the swan.

Your exposure is excellent and the swans stand out nicely on the dark background.
I hope you have a good week. Overcast and drizzly here today, but supposed to be better from tomorrow onwards.
Rosalyn Hilborne replied to Keith Burton:
Much the same here. It's Weymouth with the granddaughter tomorrow, whatever the weather!
I hope you are right :-)
