You really have captured the fluffiness of this little swan. The contrast with the water is striking. Really lovely and cute. Good luck in the contest.

Comment from Miranda Langston
Awwwwwww <3 This is so adorable <3 I thought this was a baby swan or something. I've never heard of a cygnet. I love how you captured every little bit of fuzz on the little thing :)

Comment from PeglegDeb
Well YOU...this little guy is just about perfect....just voted for him in the Naturally Cute contest btw so thought I would come review him as well.

Your whites are spot on perfect. Little guy is so well detailed as well that I can see single hairs.....excellent! Your image is nicely framed and love the way the available light adds a sparkle here and there to the very dark water.

Definitely put this one together nicely. Been waiting for a singleton since you told me to keep an eye out. So you not only got my vote for this little cutie in the contest but my final gold star of the week. Love this one!

Deborah

A beautiful picture of the tiny cygnet swimming on the dark water droplets clinging to it's down 7 glistening like liquid Diamonds. Beautiful composition framing & lighting take with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Never loose hope. Your captures always put a smile on my face. Good vibrations!

Comment from Cephus
Nice cute image. Very good detail in the fine feathers and the water ripples make for an interesting fore/background. Only wish is that would like to see a bit more detail in the eye which is a bit too dark.

Comment from Lucas Sizov
I love it!!!!! This is so simple, but so special. I like the contrast of the white and black. Was this guy swimming alone or with his family? I like this photo because, when you first look at the bird you think that it is all white. But then, you start to see that tan. The eyes don't see it right away. (At least I didn't see it.) For me that was just very interesting! I like that it has the contrast of that brown beak. Where did you take this photo? Were these guy fast at swimming? This has super sharp focus. I like that the little cygnet wasn't in the middle of the photo, it would look a little boring. Beautiful work!!! I see a possible winner here!!! Good luck in the contest!!! And thanks for sharing!!!

Comment from Envision
This is so adorable! Naturally cute :) I like the darkness of the water in combination with the lightness of the cygnet. The texture of the fur stands out nicely and the details of the water droplets and his face can be seen well.
