Birds Swans

Have you been through the support process at Adobe?

You can speak to a real person on the telephone if chat doesn't resolve your problem.

I have found them to be exceptionally helpful in the past.

EDIT: original link started a loop. apologies for breaking the site!
I haven't gone through Adobe help support because I made the new Adobe account through Apple ID so I can use their hide email feature from Adobe. I had bad experience with Adobe trying to bully me into continue to pay for subscription when I couldn't afford it and I was trying to cancel it. Now I can't get into Adobe account because I forgot my Apple ID password and the process to res t it is stupidly slow for no good reason, something I did not know until now (and Mac Mini is my only Apple product I own).
 
In my excitement to get my Oly 40-150mm f 2.8 PRO I went out last night at the pond to try it on the swans and the ducks:

Mama got angry at me because my little doggy girl found a way through the tall grass down to the edge of the pond and was sitting next to me, after patting her on the head a bit she calmed down and the swans stopped shouting at me.

Mama swan gave me a thank you look or a very serious*keep your dog in check* look but I can't tell.

Nice shots and that is a bunch. This is a bird I have rarely seen.

I love this one because of the beautiful heart shape the two baby swans make, though on a technical level the composition is not balance. Sometimes I prefer imperfect and emotion.

I also noticed that the baby swan (yus, I know it's called a cygnet) had her mom reflectex in her eye so I made a tighter crop to emphasis that.
 
On a recent holiday to Shoalhaven I couldn't believe the numbers of black swans, must have been over 100. They arrived at the river in 3-4 flocks early morning and left late afternoon, although 1 flock may stay overnight.
