Vertical crop of original Lake Wendouree photo, with added swans. The swans in this came from the one photo and I am happier with them than I am with those in the other version.
Sharpen, brightbess/contrast, pasted in swans copied fromm another photo, used clone tool to tidy them up, erased some other bits that got
imported with the swans which had been selected with the magic wand, used a little bit of ripple filter on a small area behind the swans, border, resize, stw.

Swans from here.
Very good addition of the geese. When I looked at the "original", i thought to myself... this cant be it, there are no geese. Convincing and effective composite.
Wow - I'd have never known this was a composite! Excellent work integrating the swans into the picture - the reflections and all. This really makes for a very good, well balanced photograph!
The addition of the swans is very interesting. I prefer this as the addition seems more natural. In addition, the fore, mid, and background elements are more pronounced.
