I took this photo at swamp near my house. These swans were nesting there during the spring, so I was able to get some shots of them from time to time. This shot was taken during golden hour with the sun setting directly behind the swans, I used a Sony A9 and 200-600 lens. It was a bit funny when I was taking this shot I was laying in some tall grass at the waters edge wearing full camo (my only waterproof clothing). Some people had stopped by to watch the swans and I figured they saw me, but I scared the living daylights out of them when I stood up out of the grass when I was done shooting. I guess my camo was more effective than I thought.
