Swans on the Great Ouse

Six swans a swimming

Romantic swans (Yes they really do make their necks into a heart shape)

Unexpectedly ended up going to St Neots last week. Apparently the Great Ouse is 143 miles long and the fourth longest in the UK. It seems to have a big swan population. 

Both taken on the Fujifilm X10 and jpgs processed in ACR, Photoshop and PhotoFrame 4.6 free edition.
