Donald Duck comics were banned from Finland because he doesn't wear pants
Excellent clarity and the still blue water makes this even better Sandi.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Hi, Sandi....
I just don't how you get such clarity and sharpness in shot after shot. The detail in the feathers are especially amazing, but the entire shot is darn near perfection.

I may be schizophrenic, but at least I have each other.
Congrats on your vacation Tigz.
I can hear the swan thinking..............
Mirror, mirror on the pond
Of that Tigz I am fond
Beautiful.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Wow, Brilliant colours and composition, plus detail. That youngster is very beautiful & love the reflections & the rippling water

A lovely shot that would be better if not centered, Sandi. I'm guessing you took pains the get the concentric rings just right.
Unfortunately, the eyes are pulled right out of the picture in both right and left borders.
By cropping 25% from the top, and 50% in from the left, to the head and tail, it positions the swan to where he becomes the only subject, and the secondary subject rings now appear to be entering the picture from the Left, and enfolding the prime subject, creating impact that was nonexistent. Just toggle between two such images at full screen and the presentation will speak for itself.I'm going further with this as it's the single most common fault on this and most other photographic sites.
As nice as the whole setting and Swan is, the swan looks like it's anchored right where it sits/floats. A moving swan doesn't leave concentric rings. It leaves a broad wake.
If everyone who has the tendency to center any/every subject, downloads this image, creates and crops a copy, and then toggles between the two images, you can't miss the significant improvement and impact your photographs will have.
And don't be mad at me, Sandi. If you weren't producing such good work, I wouldn't have used your beautiful swan as a lecture prop

Beautiful, Tigs. The water is so blue. I saw some of these and wondered what they were until it hit me that they must be young swans. Nicely captured.

LYTRO. The new light field photography. Refocus your shots AFTER you have taken them. Just click on the word LYTRO. See a VIDEO HERE.
Nothing bad at all to say about this one. Great lighting but the colors are the star of the show.

If you are like me, you will fall asleep in the recliner, and wake up hours later. LOL. Beautiful shot of this youthful swan.
