The Lonely Swan (2)
VisualArtist_99 (23)
During my 2006 summer vacation with my family, we went to HK Ocean Park. We saw a lot of beautiful and amazing animals they own. And when we went to a lake we saw this swan swimming alone. I haven't seen a real swan this beautiful before in my entire life so what I did was to take the camera out of my bag and took a picture of it eventhough it was raining. And I was so happy that I had a chance to see one.

Cropped and sharpened using Adobe Photoshop.
