Loved the motion of the swans between the reeds. This did not get the true vote it deserved and should have placed higher IMHO! Beautiful shot!

Man it took me a bit to see the swans. I have to say, I needed the title. I think once your brain takes a hold of something recognizable, everything else comes into focus. I love the glowing birds!

It's all about reading between the lines. And so much to read...
