Comment from Zilyram


This is a very lovely close up of the black swan. The head is well in focus. Would have been nice to see some water in front as a space for him to move otherwise good.

Nice shot!
This is really pretty! I have not seen a black swan. I have only seen a few white ones! The colors are good and so is the detail!

What a stunner!! These guys are unique all on their own. Saw them in New Zealand in the wild. A great capture with the classic swan pose! Nice sharp focus and great framing with the beautiful blue water complementing the swan!! Nice shooting!

Is this the original black swan? Beautiful photograph. Very artistic. The colors are vivid and the image has great definition. Love the texture of the water and the swan looks like it posed for you. Thank you.

This is an awesome picture of this beautiful bird. I Like the way you took this so close up and the detail you see in the feathers. The beak is interesting the way it is so red. I like the way you composed this one too. An excellent picture.
