was having a walk round Bowhill estate yesterday went up to bottom loch Seems like summers here this family of swans were enjoying a day out
wasn,t a ideal day for taking a photograph sun was realy bright on the water so added a couple of layers a yellow one then did a colour dogde of 20% to darken to take the shine away resized and up loaded was taken in raw ty for looking

Hi bryan

Nice repetition of the cygnets, with a superb splash of yellow & green in the fg. Good sharpness & a soft, diffused light. Tfs!

Bonjour Bryan

What a sweet family. they are quiet and parents are behind the face probably to learn how them to defend oneself :):)
Poor cygnets !
Best regards
Valérie

Hi Bryan, I like this. The Irises at the bottom add a nice bottom frame for your shot, and whatever you did here has created a nice color on the water ... even a bit of blue here and there reflected from the sky. Maybe a little OE on the two adult swans, but still a nice shot. Good job laddie.

hello Bryan

wonderful shot with warm colors and soft lighting..
the swans looks happy and so cute swimming with their parents:)
I like the effect of ripples, and motion in the water and the yellow flowers in the FG, it adds a nice look to the frame in general..
splendid composition..

good day
suzy

boa tarde Bryan
The composition is supreme.
My regards
Teresat

Hi Bryan,

Nice shot of the swan family on their outing. The soft tones are nice and their mutiple "wakes" convey their movement well.

TFS,
Werner

Hello Bryan, a good composition and a lovely scene of the swan family.
I like the yellow irises in the fg, they add a nice touch of colour.
The ripples in the water near the cygnets show us a bit of blue sky.
Tfs, regards Jean.
