Nice shot! It seems a bit "cramped" to me. I would have not cropped quite so close at top and bottom.

Comment by Tallbloke:
pity the light is on the back of the bird but a great captured moment anyway.

Further Clarification : I think front lit this shot would have been far superior, as back lit subject the light isnt strong enough for the effect, i think, you were after. The wings dont "glow". Just my opinion, no offense meant. (score unaltered)

This is a beautiful image, I would liked to have seen a little more of the surroundings though and not such a close crop. Good Luck.

Sligthly soft? Crop is too tight imo.

Thomas,
You wern't rude, you didn't know all the background fact for the image.
The critism was constructive.
Thanks

The focus on the swan's head is a little soft, and most of the bird is underexposed. Good catch, though.

Ah, ok.

I didn't want to be rude in my comment, but I did want to hand out some constructive (hopefully) critism because of this thread. But still an awesome capture =)

Thomas,
Just to let you know this was taken at lunch time on a very hot day so the sun was high in the sky.
