I had to fav this one right away. I've always been fascinated by swans - they are so beautiful and this shot emphasizes that perfectly

Gorgeous light on this Patti, and I like the way he's looking off to the left and the drop of water about to fall from his beak. There's a bit of noise, but we could all do with a longer zoom! You did an amazing job here of getting a shot this sharp at such a long focal length.

You can't go wrong taking images of swans. They are such magnificent birds and this is no exception.

There is nothing more beautiful than one of these birds gliding down a waterway. I like the angle of his neck and the way he is looking to the left. Beautiful capture.

It's rare to see one taken at this particular angle, Patti. You did a fine job of it.

We don’t make art to show someone what something looks like. All this requires is eyes (or a lens). Art is supposed to have meaning, emotion, power, or magic. Alan & Mario "FourThirds"
