Feathered Reflections

I haven't posted many of my swan photos.  But, they are some of my favorite from this year.  This one really lends itself to B&W, as the water is a dark green.  Hope you like it.  I only sharpened it a tad by increasing contrast....but, this is really close to exactly what came out of the camera that day.

Lucy, this looks especially wonderful in the larger view, where the details in the wing feathers and their reflections stand out beautifully.  B&W looks perfect here.

Very nice, Lucy. Excellent B&W conversion. I like the artistic presentation.
