Oh my Steve, this is gorgeous and love the water action with this graceful swan paddling by. His winges are so fabulous with the sun showing off his feathers and the way they are arched up, wow. He sure looks like he's showing off for someone.

Can see by the colour of the water that this must be the New Brighton Marine Lake and not the Brighton Model Boating Lake, Steve.(lol) I was just kidding, but now I'm serious by saying that this is another perfect swan capture. The intense light on its back gave this image a special touch!

Very nice photo of the swan,the clarity and light are very good.

Would have made a good contest entry Caruso. I like the almost black water. Hope it is not a oil slick. lol. The swan seems to like it as well. Such a great angle. Swan looks like a angel. Great post.

Beautiful shot of him/her! I see a difference in the water color. :)
Fantastic on the color capture and details once again.

This is a magnificent photo!! I love the angle from where you were standing to take this shot. Very very nice, unique. I just love how the sunlight is warming the swans back! And the waves, oh my gosh, that is just wicked-good!!! Love it..saving it and going to enjoy this often. Verena

Splendid, my good man. Splendid. You have captured the swan in the perfect light of day.
