Default now wakes the swan

now wakes the swan


swan

Now turns the hour, now wakes the swan, behold the dream
Blue skies are calling, they're falling, into a golden pool

This is probably the best (and most interesting) picture of a swan that I've seen. Interesting angle, and nice composition. I like the title. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Steve
This is a lovely shot, the pose from the swan along with the reflection, & the copmosition is spot on. Reminds me of the old swan boats they used to have at Alton Towers.

You got the exposure on this just right, the light hitting the swan brings out the perfect color tones! Your one of the best at these types of captures.
