This is a lovely capture. The clarity is very good and the colour too. The ripples really lend themselves to this and of course the real star being the swan! Well done!

I think it looks a little sad Sandi
Notice it's upper neck, & head aren't properly white yet. Perhaps it's a young un going through the trauma of adolescence. ;o)

I won't mind, I love swans. In my view, I feel that this image would look its best cropped. Great shot Sandi. :)

I think you've got a hit here, Sandi, judging by all the comments. It's beautiful and don't be shy about sharing any more that you might have!

Putting your pictures in my favorites is the highest honor I can give you. If I do not get to your pictures as soon as you post them, I apologize. I try. Also if I do not respond for awhile it doesn't mean I'm ignoring you, it just means I'm really tied up with life. Bene lava!!
