don't like the slight blur I'm seeing on this photo. I think the swans should have been sharper; it's not like the move that fast. If the focus is sharp, then the contrast is what my eyes aren't adjusting to.

great idea, but you'd need to push this much more towards white to get it to really meet the challenge.

the body of the right swan is blown out very much. there is no detail of the feathers. but otherwise nice capture and crop.

Nice shot, but the back swan kind of blends into the water and their feathers are slightly overexposed. I like the reflections and water ripples.

I love the concept here. However, shots of white birds are very hard to get right. Here the main sections of the bodies are blown out, or way too hot and all detail is lost. Overall the focus is very soft and a highlight on the eyes is needed. The gentle ripples and lower reflections are great.

Deja vu...or have I seen similar one on DPC? Anyway, nice picture...but a little sharper composition might have helped.
