really like swan, they are far and few between...this to me is a difficult shot to get with the sun shining in the background not to get a lens flair. I like the reflections/glittering of the water, but I think a tighter crop would really benefit your swan make it "fill" your frame more...very lovely

Um, just some curves adjustment...? (You'll have to forgive me -- I'm not very savvy with the post-editing yet!) :)

Beautiful. I love the sparkly soft blue water, and the blue tones picked up in the swan's wings.

The swan is in nice sharp focus and the colors are subtle.

It's really, really hard to get those sparkles in the water to show through on the image.
