Very cute valentine image with the swans creating the heart shape as they come together. Nicely framed composition with good color, exposure and white balance.

Thank you very much for your nice greetings. Happy Valentines Day to you!
I like the symbolism you used. The couple of swans is just perfect for Valentine. It is said that the mate for life and they create a heart shape with their necks and heads. The photo is well focused and exposed. Details are sharp and the colors are realistic. The small panorama framing works. The birds are well placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

This is a perfect Valentine's Day image! What great timing to capture this beautiful pose of the two swans, they put their heads together and formed a heart! I like their placement in the frame, they are well focused, this image is clear, exposure is good, I see good detail in their white feathers. Well composed and presented! Happy Valentines Day to you!

Comment from michiganmike
A great heart for Valentine's Day. I like the cropping and the fine perspective. Although many would disagree, I think the swans are about a third of a stop underexposed.

thanks so much;
you're right: underexposed in order to avoid blown outsof the white; Sandra undrexposes at least 1 cv

You either were very lucky with your timing, or you have this swan couple well trained. The pose is perfect for the day!! Nice composition and framing.
