I captured this image of a Mute Swan early this morning at Lake Morton in Lakeland, Florida. This swan may be captive or feral. This lake has both at times. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

'HI Joe, quite peaceful... I like the details on the neck but wish for more on the side and head. The whites have a cast or two, the back in shadow has a bluish cast and the side and tail has a pinkish/magenta. Now I'm on shakey ground here and wouldn't know if it is in need of correction or ...? I'm still in color cast kindergarten!

I like everything about this one. Except the fact that these monsters drive out native species :)

The high key treatment works very well here. Composition is nice as well.

Very Nice Hight Key Image. I agree with color casts which can easily be fixed.
Thanks for sharing.

Nice capture of this guy! It's very peaceful with great detail. I've never managed anything decent of this species, so this is really nice to see.
