I think you're right jimmar.  P-humpers (as they are called in the biz) spawn in May when surface temps are at around 50*.  Immediately after the photo shoot, it slithered up the shoreline and at about 100' from the waters edge, emitted the most foul cloud of spawn . . . nevermind.

This has been a really nice sequence of autumn photos, Karl, but the one today with the swans really made me want to look and look and look and. . . .

Lovely!  a good way to start my morning.  Thanks.  I think I'll go back and look at it again.   Smiley

Thanks Spartan2; the Swans were pretty far away for my 200mm lens; I think I need to borrow that nice long distance lens that you use for wildlife. Smiley  We usually see Swans on our Fall trips.  Minnesota has been very successful in re-establishing them with the non-game wildlife program.

Actually, all I have is a 200mm.  Years ago I used a 300, but with my 7D I only take my 70-200mm L-series lens because it is an IS lens and it is more stable for hand-held shots in the canoe.  I just crop my shots.   Wink

Your swans were just right.  We have never seen a swan in the BW.

Thanks Pat, that was on LLC, the landing for the campsite in today's picture.

Oh, Karl, that canoe in the fog is too pretty!  It made me want to go canoeing instead of all of the things I have to do today!

Gorgeous, moody shot! Thumbs Upup
