I love swan pictures that show the wings held out this way. Besides that, she (?) is giving us a most flirtatious look! (You aren't perchance a male swan, are you?)

Kudos!

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

That is one beautiful swan capture. I would have cloned out the weed going up thru his head. It's a bit distracting. He swam over to take a look at you, didn't he? You really did well on this. I think it deserves more than what it has received so far.

Leuk dat je er weer bent Hilde,
Wat zijn het toch mooie dieren he! Ik heb altijd veel ontzag voor ze. Ze zijn zo koninklijk.

Hi Sabine, this is definitely a male [or Cob] Mute Swan. He's displaying to you;o) Beautiful capture with fine plumage detail, not always easy with white. It tends to bleach out when I try it..
Cheers,
Steve.
