    Default Water Off A Swans Head...

    I captured this image early last Friday morning at Lake Morton in Lakeland, Florida. A wonderful peaceful place in the early morning. There is a wooden bench on the east side of the lake where the shade lingers as the sun rises making for lovely soft light. To sit quietly watching the lake occasionally clicking images as birds come close by for me is heaven on earth. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

    A perfectly executed and well designed head portrait of an introduced species. I love the BKGR.

    Beautiful close look at this guy, water drops included! Exposure is perfect. I might warm the image up a bit; As is, it's feels a bit cold.
