| Personally, I'm not crazy about seeing the beautiful creature against such a stark "man-made" pavement background, but that point aside, I think the offset composition works pretty well. I grew up around all kinds of swans, including Polish Mutes (like the one shown). They are powerful beasts both in and out of water - despite their somewhat clumsy appearance. I like the kinda drab color tones & processing you've applied here - it matches her surroundings. You lose some detail in the highlights, but I think it kinda goes with the processing choices. Nice capture. |

| I like the way this swan seems to be strolling through the city. Very nonchalant. At first I was thinking, 'now these are very grey colours for such a beautiful bird', but for this particular photo, I like it. The tag on the ankle is kinda like a style statement. |
