The highlight of the week photographically speaking was the birth of two cygnets. I believe I first spotted them within 48 hours of their arrival. I’ve been over to the lake to check on them several times. Plenty of other things going on as well, there is always lots to photograph, but this time of year is mostly about renewal as Spring progresses:
Welcome to this week’s installment of my daily photographic record.ย Posts in this series will be photos from the week before, roughly Friday through Friday. This, once a week, wrap-up post will publish on Sunday. The photos for this post will be in a gallery format, they will have all been taken on my phone. The captions on the photos will be an indication of the photo-editing software used to edit them, or simply “as shot” for those that are unedited.
Writing a weekly wrap up with a gallery is a way for me to gather my thoughts on what has caught my attention in the previous week. It will be a way of filtering through what I am thinking about photographically. I’ll also be able to come back to these posts and look at what trends emerge over time.
As with all my posts, your comments are welcome. I appreciate your interaction with my work here on this blog. It is my intention to publish in this series on Sunday. Every Sunday that is possible. Looking at my year, I already know there are some weeks where I will not be close enough to my technology to make a post possible. In an effort to keep this project pleasant for myself, I won’t be attempting catch-up posts.
Hope to see you in the comments below and in this space next week!
Cheers!
Swans always have an air of sophisticated elegance about them, even when they’re looking after their babies!

Love the swans as always! They’re very photogenic birds it would seem. Is that a coffee or a hot-chocolate?
