Swans seem to need a lot of space to take off! Plus the sound of the takeoff is impressive. Their feet slapping on the water and their wings flapping make quite an interesting sound for an interesting takeoff to photograph.
Thanks Donna! Also the sound of their feet slapping the water and the whooshing sound of their wings flapping are fun to hear as they take off and then fly over you! They do need a lot of space to get airborne!
The six panel take off looks great. Wish we could see it larger.
Thanks Steve! The print is about 5 ft long. At 10 frames per second I chose a shot to use every few frames apart for the print.
They really do some running, but as big as they are, I don’t know how they get air born! 🙂 Awesome action frames, Reed!

What a great sequence! How do they do with landing?
Thanks! Landings are interesting. Usually with a lot of splashing! I never saw one land on land, so do not know how that works!
