This week, share a photo of something marked by its weight — or its air of weightlessness.
Always interesting to watch swans taking flight. Their bulk means they can not get airborne as quickly as smaller birds and they must use their legs to kick the water to generate additional speed for the launch. Caught this shot on the lake back home last week just after this guy had successfully taken off.

They seem weightless when in flight, but getting up there, not so much. 🙂
