The Cam

There was very little around alongside The Cam this morning, and the light wasn't that special either.   Another chance to have a go at something creative.   The only lens I had with me was the 100mm - 400mm which I used rather like a trombone.   There are options too, to start with the lens on 100mm or 400mm;  to move the lens over the full range of focal length or just part.   And so it goes on!   The first few images are of the landscape of The Cam, including some sheep on the other side of the river.   The fourth image suggests we have hills in the Fens!   All an optical illusion!




















The two images which attract me the most are those of a family of Mute Swans, with just the one cygnet.   The lower image includes two dogs on the opposite bank with dogs barking and swans and swans hissing at dogs.



























To complete the range of images attempted, here are some of the dogs, a tree stump with fungus on it, and the wheel of a car parked at Baits Bite Lock.
