Whilst sitting down and relaxing, and waiting to see if there were any interesting shots, a group of swans started coming towards me. At some points they were so close that the lens couldn't even focus on them. It's nice just sitting down and waiting, and then having all the swans coming towards you, waiting for you to take close-ups of them. Because the sun was still quite low the light was very nice as you can see. Canon EOS 500, and Sigma 70-200 f/2.8 lens, handled.
