Hi Shelly,
Classic shot of this wonderful bird seen making a beautiful riffling reflection on the green surface of this lazy southern lake. Nice clear colors with excellent details and sharpness to this lovely image with such an informative note.

A perfect title Shelly!!! Very peaceful and serene. We could learn from this beautiful swan...find a great spot and just 'hang out'. TFS

Hello Shelly, this white swan royal is well positioned in the image, the tonalities of the colours of the backs plan arises well from the sight but is sufficiently discrete to develop this dumb swan and is beautiful reflection on water of the lake Swan, a photograph resting and in the tone which I appreciate, sincerely

Well done Shelly. You have captured beautiful light on the swan as she opens her wings a bit. Excellent DOF in the the BG is nicely blurred making us focus on the swan.

Nice image, Shelly, with the swam in great focus. Also the framing is spot on, and the colors are really pleasing shades.
Good work with the swan capture!

Hi Shelly,

nice colorful shot of this swan... The -almost- sqaure format is a good idea...

Cheers,

Bonjour Shelly,
une galerie qui montre beaucoup de photos animalières et j'adore cela.
Ici la scène est prise avec une DOF avantageuse qui met bien le focus sur ce signe.
Excellent cadrage.
Cet arbre au milieu du plan d'eau fait tout son effet.
Regards.
Daniel.

Hi Shelly,

Beautiful view of the Swan Lake with Swan. Very pieceful quiet armosphere. I like this tree (bald cypress) growing in the lake. Nice photo.

Warm regards

Hi Shelly

Good use of selective focus & shallow dof, with great fg sharpness on the swan, & wonderful colour & reflections. Tfs!

Hello Shelly,
The swan in backlight is pure beauty!
Lovely surrounding enhances the fine bird, that fortunately is looking to the side for a good profile shot...
The nice ripples in the water adds to the reflective quality!
Greetings,

Hi dearest friend
Very nice back lights in spite of the hard luminosity.
The swan is in a strong point position and I note a good selectif DOF setting on it.
Bests and warm regards.
Sincères amitiés.
