Whooper Swans – Idling in the Brume

Whooper Swans

Idling in the Brume

The early morning’s tenor was visually dense with moisture rising from the warm spring near the frozen lake’s elusive edge. Manifested in its own murky monotony, the simple scene seemed lifelessly uniform in visual presentation. It was the suffocatingly plain wall of whiteness that challenged the eye for detail.

When a gentle zephyr thinned the misty veil, entities within the opaque haze were revealed … a flock of Whooper Swans idling in the brume.
