Well.. smell the daisies but please do not eat them! Lol.
LISA! Another amazing shot! I love it when you can take a shot of a swan out of the water. I love that you have no blow out here. Great capture, POV, color and clarity! Great camera work girl! Fab!

What a lovely swan. I like the way you have taken this with his neck in the curled pose. Your work is so good. I have been away for awhile due to a death in our family. I am back now and look forward to seeing more of your work.

Comment from Anne
This is wonderful the way you took this one. I like the way you took the swan up so close. The swan is beautiful. I think this would have been better if you had cropped just a little off of the top.

Great title and shot Lisa. I really love the blurred background. I am curious what settings and lens you used? I do think there is slight lose of details in the feathers but not enought to deduct

:) Thank you, jbravo!! Captured with my Canon EOS 5D, 75-300 mm lens, early evening hours before sunset, 1/200 sec shutter, 5.6 aperture, 200 ISO, 240 mm focal length.
Comment from JosephGilbert
Nice shot. Great subject in the swan and your title fits perfectly. The background doesn't distract from the focus, point of interest of the bird. Good lighting to see the small flowers in the foreground. Good work.

Comment from outsideMAN
A big composition presented here of a swan adopting a very nice pose. For me both the focus and exposure are a little off in this photo. The foreground is fairly sharp but I think the swans head and neck are not. I also feel that a good proportion of the swans wing has a blue cast on it. These have a spoiling effect on the shot which is a pity as it had the potential to be very good.

Oh my what a beauty Lisa! The pose is amazing and graceful and as you said the scene is serene feeling! Swans have that effect on you! Nice lighting with the sharp focus! Like the b.g. to make the swan stand out nicely against it. Framing is perfect with the ye going right to the swans face!
