Good shot. Black water and white swan works well.

I would crop it more and aim the shot to that old man feeding them , with this I almost overlooked him and itd be shame...

Love all of the detail in the shot ... great BW

Even though the whites are blown, this is still a very nice photo and I don't think it would be as good if the older man weren't there.

good conversion to black and white

Nice shot--but I found the hidden gem in the hidden gem! I *love* the man on the left! I wish I would have been more about him and the swans.

Swans are so white they are hard to shoot. This is very nice - I especially like the building at the far end of the water.

Nice street photo. Usually you see a lot of ducks, but having this many swans is unexpected.

I really like the aloneness of the one man. Makes me wonder about his life and how many times he comes here to feed the swans.
Post actions
Great B/w conversion.. the swans stand out beautifully against the water..

The man makes the shot. Interesting moment captured.

Nice high contrast Black and white. I like the leading line.

it is a plus to have converted this to black and white - I think color would have taken away from the feel. I like his placement, but the balance somehow seems off with the band of white at the top - there is nothing that balances it. will think on this one some more.
Post actions
would have liked to see the colors
Post actions
too busy, my eyes keep wandering around. contrast is too high, lights are blown
Post actions
nice candid moment. I know the angle doesnt help but would of like a closer crop to bring more intimacy into the shot.
Post actions
I love the old country feel of this. I can't tell if the guy is feeding the swans or not, they don't seem to be attracted to him. Minor nit-pick is the tail of the front swan is cut off. It may have been better to crop above it's head and enlarge it all more.
