Time for a walk today before the sunset.
Really like the first Swan shot, the wing position behind the head and the orange reflections on the water that compliment the birds beak for me.

Clear night tonight, so I grabbed yet another shot of the moon. Fuji X-T4 & XF 100-400 lens.

Thank you.

The light was flat and dead and I realised I was wasting my time taking pictures so I sat down to eat a sandwich then the sun broke through and everything changed so I ran down to the beach and snapped that before clouds covered the sun again

I much prefer the faster shutter freezing (pun intended) the action
