Bonjour Benjamin, ta photo est très agréable à regarder. J'aime les couleurs douces et le cadrage avec le reflet.
Bon W-E à toi

I really like the way you framed this picture : it's so quiet ! Colors are also just perfect. Good use of a grag gray filter.
Cheers

Hi Benjamin,

Good composition, well done

Josep,

Excellent capture Benjamin. Composition, detail and color couldn't be better.

Amicalement ,

Hi Benjamin,
Beautiful picture with a very calm pre-dawn atmosphere. I like the way you've framed the two swans perfectly between the reflections of the trees. The taller tree on the left also balances the main subject well.
What are your views on contrails? I think I might have been tempted to remove the one here.
John
