Documentary in Six or Less Photos
So I guess the pictures are supposed to speak for themselves ... ummm... I'll see what you all think about them before saying what I had in mind.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Lea, thank for playing :) It's okay to title the series (to give us a clue). I really like the first picture, such an idyllic setting, the swans seem to be talking to each other. Then, BOOM!, sudden intrusion by humans (for better or worse), and now the swans are annoyed and upset by being tagged.
It seems that everyone is MIA again. I'm okay with the "shadows" idea for May. Let's see if anyone else speaks up.

Hey Lea, this is great. I say courtship is the theme for me. Something about swans that evokes romance. Maybe because they mate for life.
Great shots
I like the shadow game. That will be fun.

So... Lea, what did you have in mind? :)

What I was thinking about was the bird's ability to show off its dislikes... It seems like a well timed tag-biting, doesn't it?
In the first social "chatty" picture, it's like they don't notice anyone but themselves. They carry on as usual but when I came in closer, they're pretty quick to point out that these yellow things aren't so nice. Trying to bite it off.
And the last shot really looks like the swan gives up on its efforts to convince me, and when I leave it will return to shot #1, carrying on as usual. Until the next person comes around.. ;)
I guess it's just visual commentary on the swans and their tags.
