How Close were You???

Trumpeter Swans in Fall FoliageTrumpeter Swans in Fall Foliage The answer to that question is usually, "Not as close as you'd think." Mostly because I'm not that brave. And unquestionably because I have no ability to outrun anything....man or beast.

Twisting the Roosevelt saying, I "Walk softly and carry a big lens".

I don't like to be photographed, but on my recent trip to Alaska my sister blatantly ignored that.  Then she sent out a group text with the photo. I would have preferred not to have been in the picture; however, I now have two photos of the same scene that nicely illustrates some perspective. 

The one with me inconspicuously at the bottom was taken with her iPhone. The two white specks left of center are the trumpeter swans I was photographing.
