Wild …Twist and Shout!

The twist is obvious but the shouting
is Mute Swan style… with pleasure
and smile…

I always love the way mute swans react to having a really good wash. It always reminds me one one of my cats who would suddenly get this mad glint in her eyes, then you'd take cover as she spent the next few minutes bouncing off the walls.

…specially during these hot summer days I guess.
This is the time of the year I enjoy the less because
of the heat waves… bad for a Canadian bear!

Thanks for dropping by!

Daniel..Another fine capture. You often catch the unusual moment.You must spend hours on location. It's just having a 'wash & brush up' is it ? Otherwise, it looks as though something has caught its eye.

By the way. We have a wonderful photo hanging in our living room of three bear cubs bunched up on a rock, mid-stream on a fast-flowing river in Canada. We bought it at a shop at Anchorage having travelled there from Seward.

I despair at the those who go bear-hunting in the State of Minnesota (or anywhere for that matter) So many of the morons want to kill them they have to have a lottery to hand out a licence.

I'm being polite when I say.."I despair" :banghead:

Not really, John! I only go, normally, for an hour or so
after an assignment, location or studio, to cool down
from the contacts and pressure of the job.

The truth is that I am an unrepentant, impenitent voyeur
(in the contemplative sense) and incorrigible image hunter.
I don't have much time but I try to make it count.

Transcending all elements in the composition is the story
telling… without it, the take is just another record shot —
I do have to shoot some of these too at times!

Thanks, Mark… the next one may be Day Tripper
or a hard days night… or Sargeant Pepper…
