Fuji   s Swan

Photograph by Swapnil Deshpande , National Geographic Your Shot

I was on my backpacking trip to Japan, and I had decided to spend a day on Lake Yamanaka in Hirano village to photograph Mount Fuji, writes Swapnil Deshpande, who shared this picture with the Your Shot photo community. I was fortunate to get this swan swimming in the morning light there.
