Calming Waters Photo

Photographer’s Note

River Leven and Dunbarton Rock.
Nice calm day to walk by the river. Beyond the Rock the River Clyde flows downstream.
As soon as one stands be the railings the Swans come over, maybe a small snack.
I tend to leave most photos as they are, sharpened very slightly.
I would liked the swan in the bottom right little more in the picture, however did not want to crop out.

Hi, Robert.

Nice shot!

I realise the problem with the swan in the bottom right but why not be honest? This happens to me all the time! If you chopped him off from the bottom, you'd have cut another swan in half and if you'd cropped him from the right, the boat would have been cut too! Thing is, if you hadn't mentioned it, I doubt if anyone would have noticed!

Yes, Robert, a nice picture: perhaps just a little on the blue/green side?

Best Wishes,

John.

Oh but this one can use a little sthraightening, no? It'll no damamge it.
But anyway, it's a very good photo, all is so clear and bright here, and birdies and these strange rocks and general scenery are interesting and fresh, so to say.
