i like this photo but i think it would have actually been more affective in color. the black and white gives no definition to the swan's feathers.

Cute! Might have preferred the color version, and the focus appears to be on the sign, not the critters.

Great sign - I wonder if this shot would be more dramantic if it was in color

I find this a little too soft and the whites are burned out, amusing image though.
