[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
My first lucky shot with my new d70 and sigma lens.
During a fabulous day in november a took this shot near Gouda. The whole famile swan was bathing. While I took this picture 30 storks flew over my head. Another walker attended me. I wasn't too disappointed when I saw this shot back home, but still....

Hi!
Welcome on TN :))) wish you all the best here :)
I like the idea of photo. The waterdrops looks great on a swan but display frame isn`t good. It`s a pitty that you cut the swan`s head :( Anyway sharpness is good that`s why I will point this picture :)

Hi Reina,
You start wiht a nice picture of a beautiful Mute swan.
I like the colours and the POV(Point Of View).
The droplets are nice bonus.
Pity you cut the top of the head.
I did a WS with another crop.
Well done.

Welcome to TN.

The Marylin Monroe of anserines, is it, Reina ? Good capture, not perfect but good capture.

Hi Reina,
this is a wonderful shot. You had great light and I love the drops, they are glittering, very nice. Sharpness is excellent. Very good work.
A warm welcome here on TN. Have a great time.
Bye and greetings

A superb close up, excellent eye detail, well exposed whites, and good detail. This is a well composed shot.

Reina, this was a great debut.

Welcome to TN.

I like pose and pov in your shot.

Great droplets and exposure.

Welcome to TN Reina,
Very good detail, sharpness and exposure is spot on.
The POV is good as is the look of the swan.
Thanks for posting, have a good week.

I look forward to viewing more of your posts.

Hello Reina!
Welcome on TN;)Very nice first post.I liked POV,details(especially waterdrops on white feathers),sharpness,DOF and composition a lot.Very well done!Thanks for sharing....:-)

Hi Reina.
Nice shot to beging with.
I also like Gertīs workshop. If you want to get that "but still..." out of your note, you have arrived to the right place :)
Welcome and thanks for posting.

Hello Reina,
If this is your first lucky shot... Hopefully there are follwing a lot more of these luckies.
Rasor sharp, fresh colours and a nice compo.
To my opinion the "tatoo" on the snail is disturbing the picture a bit. But mostly this kind of things you will detect when you are back home, isn't it?
Overall, a nice animal portrait, well done!
Regards, Ruud.
