Couple of Swans

Nicely composed and water ripples and BG superb. Very nice.

Hi, Gerald.  The angle on the swans is pretty steep and they'd probably look better if you could have gotten lower (I don't know if that was possible).  It looks like some of the whites are overexposed as well, which can be difficult to avoid on a bird like this unless the sun is fairly low or you have an overcast.  I like the relative positions of the two swans and the reflection of the rear one is really nice. I also like the look of the water and the reflections of the trees in it.

Gerald, I will echo Dennis comments, as he has covered most of my sense of the image. In more detail, the whites on the backs and necks in bright unshadowed areas are reading totally blown and outside of gamut. I think this is one of those photos where you have to say to yourself "Woulda, coulda, shoulda" and think about what you could have done either in taking or processing the image. We've all done one of these and more. I know I have.

I like the composition with only one swan reflected.  Only nit is perhaps a little less saturation.
