As I was taking my photos this group of swans came in close to see what I was doing. I liked the movement and blur giving them an ethereal quality. They just made a lovely sunset even better.

Bonjour Douglas,
Waouh ! Les couleurs sont superbes, idéales je trouve pour mettre en valeur des silhouettes ! Et ce ciel est très impressionnant. On pourrait presque croire que terre et mer ont été inversées !
Amicalement.

Pascalie.

Beautiful sunset colours and I like the contrast between the rocks in the mid ground and the mountains in the background.
Thanks for sharing

They do add interest to an already wonderful shot. Did you "honk" them in? Nice red saturation on the right side of the image.
