Another one of those images that looks like it would be soooo much more exceptional as a large print. Lots going on. Great lighting. Good colors.

I bet everyone and their dog is pointing this out, but you appear to have two spots of sensor dust.

Put you lens in front of a smooth white paper, throw it in manual focus and make sure it is out of focus, then take a picture. You can use contrast adjustments to see the spots more clearly.

Good to check every couple of weeks or more, depending on conditions.

The photo would be a good candidate for a 'complexity' challenge. In general, I find the pic a bit too busy. Also, the secondary/primary subject of the distant boat is centered which feels somewhat uncomfortable here.

A bit overdone with the processing (which I would guess involves some creative use of sharpening layers to push the backlit feathers) which is particularly evidenced by the fringing on the feathers in the top left of the frame and the grainy sky, but I really like the base picture. It's a very thought provoking and interesting composition. - 7

That's pretty cool. I might have titled it Love: Reflected or perhaps Requited.

Flight of the Swans

Something about this suggests that it was not as easy as it looks to take this one...

I like the rhythm, and of course 3 swans is pretty amazing, but there seems to be a bit of 'low contrast' issue here...
