Did the usual PP and used Photokit and applied a LAB colour filter, added a nocturnal filter, did a surface blur, erased back to the swan, did a stroke edge.
Full frame. Wanted it to look heavenly.

Jackie, Really nice look created with the filters,might want more room in front and less in back of Swan-Water colors are fantastic and the ice makes this special!! Does have an ethereal feel to it! Well done!
Jackie, first off, that swan is incredible. What a beautiful action image! The one thing that bugs me a little bit is the color of the snow in the BG. I made a quick selection of it, opened levels and took the BG both lighter and darker and I think both works, depending on the mood you are going for. Again, just my opinion and if you are trying to replicate moonlight I think you may have nailed it...but the BG feels a little off to me from a color perspective.
