I met this little guy as he was swimming in a hotel pond in Napa, CA. You would think that swans are docile, but he seemed like he had a bit of an attitude! I couldn't get too close or I would scare him off, so I zoomed out to 200mm, crouched down to his level, and grabbed this shot as soon as he looked my way.
Created with a Nikon D3100 and 55-200mm lens at f/16, 1/250s.
