    Default Mute Swan ...A different POV

    Canon 1DX mk2
    f/4 400mm DO Mk2 at 800mm
    f/8
    1/400
    ISO 2000

    Something different from my usual....I liked the pose and DOF with only the head in focus...

    This is great Will! I love the perspective. There may be a tiny, and I mean tiny, amount of motion blur...but boy-oh-boy what overall impact this image has got. You should be happy with this!

    Different, and VERY dynamic I may add, Will.

    So creative, and I love how you went outside the box here with the composition. Getting both eyes IF benefitted you greatly here.

    The wake adds for sure and I love the composition. I am curious how much you took off to end up here?

    Just a gem, and a fun one to boot. TFS my friend!

    Looks great. The in your face point of view is nice. Sharp with good detail as well.

    Hi Will, this really pops in ones face. Love the low perspective, and the water flowing over the beak.
