Nikon 1 V1 Potpourri | Swan & Cygnet On my walkabout trail around a small pond, a Mute Swan family had taken up residence. Mom and child moved slowly along the bank looking for a snack.
The Back Story Again the Nikon 1 V1 with its 2.7 crop factor allowed me to capture a nice image while not disturbing the Swans. My lens was pointed through the weeds to get eye level image. Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
