"Swans Awake" - Welney's Wildfowl and Wetland Trust

I hadn't been to this event before and was thrilled to have been there when the dawn was so special.   On arriving at Welney just before 06.30 the moon was bright, the temperature low and anticipation was growing!   It will take quite a while sorting through the mass of images, and I've started at the beginning!   These photographs of Whooper Swans haven't any filters added and have a very high ISO reading.   I have left the grainy effect as it is in an attempt to capture some of the mystery of the sightings of Whooper Swans flying in the dark.   It was magical!
