hi dean, nice to see you back again! :-)
wonderful dreamlike shot, terrific reflections on the smooth "blue" water,
nice peaceful atmosphere although his look seems not to be very happy.
well done & best wishes, thorsten.

Hi Dean

What a lovely capture of this reflective swan and tastefully placed in a very neat frame. It almost seems like the swan is actually looking at itself in the reflection. Maybe it was contemplating the beauty of self.

The all-round soft colours and light does the trick here for me. The composition and POV is eye catching and the proportional placement of the subject suggests excellent cropping. Lovely colours and great details give the shot a further edge to stimulate the visual senses.

Well done and TFS.
Regards
Loot

PS. I don't normally critique photos without notes, but I am used to your great notes in the past so I cannot help but to wonder what happened to it this time.

Hi Dean,
Fine and great picture! Perfect focus and great clear details on swan and on reflect too! Lovely colours. Very beautiful point of view and frame. When we see this fantastic bird we just have some respect for him :-)
Regards,

Claude
