This is one I posted on avian the other day. I added light to the swan, warmed the colors up a bit, used a radial zoom, and then some brush strokes. All c&c welcome. Thanks for looking.

Hi Cindy,
This is one sweet image, the colors and lighting are superb...the radial zoom puts it over the top for me...well done...:cool:
Beautiful Cindy! I just saw this posted in Avian. I gotta tell you that is one sweet base image w/ the lighting and colors. I like what you did here w/ the zoom blur. I might go in on the side of his neck w/ the zoom in a few areas so it doesn't look outlined. But I love how you left the water under the swan. Very creative and nicely done.
Hi Cindy, Very nice job on this ...The subject, lighting and manipulation are all skillfully handled!
Nice image and application, Cindy.
I notice that the brown area below the bird's foot seems to be swirled toward the foot. Understandable as it is the foot reflection. However, I would suggest that moving the swirl over slightly toward the bird would improve the composition. However, as usual ...
Your image ... Your vision.
Very nicely done, Cindy. The light is what makes this so special...
Got to love the radial blue, it really shines on the blue water and sky, and the spotlight is very cool.
Thanks to all for your comments. Denise, I see what you mean about the outline, I'll try to re-work. Mark, I'll have to think about the foot blur.
VWD Cindy , additional light and radial zoom makes its
TFS
Very pretty Cindy. Love the warm glow of light and the radial zoom blur. Nicely done!
