A beautiful shot.I find this image has a superb quality about it and quite an artistic feel to it.
Love the pose, the light two-toned background is great and the ample space around the bird combined with the portrait format works a treat.
Very nice indeed.

Great pose and detail, some levelling needed.
Quite magnificant.

Great pose you've captured here Dave. Spot on exposure.

I think it may need a tiny bit of cw rotation?

Fantastic Dave - perfectly exposed and beautifully cropped.

I wonder whether blurring the wing motion with a slower shutter speed would have enhanced the artistic feel further.

Great pose, on this occasion the central placement is fine as the swan is 'looking' to the top right corner, agree needs a touch of CW rotation....
