[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Isn't it wonderful how the water just lies there?
A mute swan on Llandrindod lake has just surfaced after foraging the depths for food - the sun sets behind it so the back of the neck might be slightly OE....but i thought it was still worth sharing.

This is my last post for a while - off to The Netherlands for a few days relaxing - OK not relaxing but a change from the normal routine.

Thanks for viewing and have a good weekend :-)

Hi Lesley,

Very beautiful shot especially the dripping water on the swan..however i think it can still be improved especially on its color intensity. I will try a WS and tell me what you think.

Hello Lesley,
Yes water can have intriguing qualities and the droplet on the tip of the beak constitutes your note.
