Can't we all just get along?!Nice capture of this poor black swan being harassed by the white one.good cropping, nicely frames the subjects-like hiw you captured the sunlight through the white swan's feathers.I 've heard how aggressive they can be ,esp. When they have nests,and I know some people use swan"decoys" to scare geese away from their ponds.You have definitely captured this one's aggressiveness, it is a great entry for the contest- best of luck!

Why can't we all just get along?! :) Very nice capture of the motion and emotion going on here. It is clear that the mute swan is being territorial. I like how well the black swan's face stands out and the feathers on both of them look good.

Perfect timing to capture this view of the two swans, well focused, good action stop, colors and tones are natural, I like the ripples on the pond showing motion. I like the lighting. Well composed and presented!

This is indeed a great entry for this contest, and it is easy to see how aggressive the white swan is. Something they are well know for. I especially like the fine shine and reflections you have captured in the water, and also how well both birds are standing out.
Your photo is nice and sharp and it is clear and well defined details to be seen in every part of the birds. I also think the exposure is very good.
The format you have cropped this photo down to is perfect and the two birds have got a very good placement within the frame. Indeed a great looking and well taken photo, and with an excellent DOF. I wish you luck with the contest.

Now this is what I have been waiting to see. A perfect entry for the contest theme.
This is what I imagined would be a winner and now I have the pleasure of viewing it. Excellent clarity and detail
and excellent capture of the swan doing exactly that.
Fantastic contender, Best of luck in the competition.

A wonderful stop action picture of the Mute Swan telling the Auatralian visitor it's has outstayed it's Visa & should be flying home really soon. Beautiful stop action picture of these two Swans arguing taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.
Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Pamela Ruggiero
So, humans are not the only ones with racism. It is nature, I know and nature can be cruel. Very nice framing. Nice composition. The white swan has a big advantage over the black ones because they are bigger and more powerful. Too bad they are killing all of the black swans indirectly by not allowing the good nesting sites in which their babies would be more protected. Nice framing. Good entry for the contest. Thank you for sharing and best of luck with this image

Comment from Sange
Great action shot! Timing was great on this. Sharp focus, nice details and informative notes to go along with the photo.
Can't help but feel for the Black Swan all alone.
Good luck ;)
