Autumn Trumpeter

[Brian Sartor]

Hello,
I created this image of a Trumpeter swan last Tuesday morning - one of the very few days over the last couple of weeks that we've seen the sun here in Minnesota.

Look forward to all comments and critiques.

Lovely posture and sharpness, and good low angle! The whites are a tad hot on my monitor?

Great pose, and I love the layers of feathers on the wings. The whites could be toned down, but not much - they actually look like I would expect them to in this lighting which has seemingly started to get harsher. Nice habitat...I kinda wish the dark strip at top wasn't so dark.

just wished the wing and head was seperated, still a grand pose, loved the light and angle, congrats..

Beautiful BG and a fantastic wing pose! The whites are fine.

Lovely image, ones of the best swan picks I have seen for a while. Whites look perfectly exposed on my LCD. TFS
