Pretty water and good control of the whites. I wish there was some separation of the two, as it is a bit difficult to tell where one begins and the other ends.

I love the way the poses of the swans work together here, Peter. Did you look at a square crop when you were processing? It looks as if it might work here. In the larger image, the swans look just slightly soft-perhaps a bit more sharpening would help.

Nice image. I like the reflection of the swans in the FG. I think the positions of the heads balances the image.
