A Trio Of Swans At Sunrise

by Holly Cawfield

As I was sitting on the pebbled beach of Lake Ontario at sunrise, these swans gracefully moved toward the shore in the morning mist.

Equipment: Canon 400D

While life is about many things, one of the most important and inspiring is the lesson of how to ’see’. To see our surroundings, to see how light affects them, to see the earth and the people who inhabit it for the gifts they are. Although I’m relatively new to photography it has become a powerful way to learn the lesson of such sight. I’m learning photography with the help of study, kind forum friends and LOTS of practice.

The triangular perspective of the three swans takes viewers’ eyes to the hazy, almost ambiguous, background, suggesting this little world goes on forever. Nice job!
