... and the last photo of my swan series, this one shot just a few minutes before the sunset.

Have a good day, TL friends.


Thanks to Hendrika, this photo is added to the reflection theme and I changed the original title ("Grace and Beauty") a bit.

Merhaba myfriend Sorina...
Good composition. Very well captured and pov...bravo..selamlar...

Hello Sorina,

You have created a very calming shot here!

It is like an artists playground of tone and shade!
The swan is perfectly placed for f/g interest and the setting sun makes her wings a golden fan!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

The pink of th swans feathers blend nicely with the pink of the BG water and sky. Beautiful lighting and mood.

The colours are superb and the lightt through the wing feathers makes this an outstanding composition.

Ooohhhh Sorina,
It's soooooo beautiful!!!
Very poetic.
Des couleurs absolument fantastiques d'autant plus qu'elle sont contrastées par la splendide silhouette de ce cygne.
Et ce doux soleil qui capte toute notre attention Bravo, bravo, bravo!!!

Dupa parerea mea reflectia aici vine abia pe planul al doilea. Lumina (mai ales aia din penele de pe spinare) e vioara intai !
