Swan Photos from Belle Isle
©Photos By LaTease
Here are some great nature photos from my new friend LaTease. She had several swan photos she told me I could post, and I had trouble choosing, as they were all amazing.
I chose these two swan photos. The first one is a beautiful angle, and shows the face well. I also love how the focus blurs in the distance, making the ice look even more cold and austere.
The second one is great composition. Having the swan in the lower left corner following roughly the rule of thirds makes this one a winner. LaTease could well send this one as a Christmas card this year!

Here’s what she had to say about taking swan photos:
Here are some photos I took of a white swan on Belle Isle in Detroit. The swan was totally oblivious to me and my presence…I believe it is hard to capture animals in their natural habitat unless you do not disturb them. When animals notice you, then they will instinctively move away from humans…And they are smart too. They know that I can not stand on thin ice, so this is where the swan moves.

Thank you for the awesome nature photos, LaTease!

Thank you for showing my photos. Belle Isle is actually a park in Detroit that back in the 1800s was used as a fort in a battle against the Indians. It was a battle for land, one of the most strategic places for soldiers.
Once again, LaTeasa has some great pics, those are beautiful.. I love the white on white!
Great post! I always enjoy reading your stories! Thumbs up!
