Beautiful swan and great reflections. Where did you take this? See, I think if I ask you a question you might just reply.

Chris from South Jersey, United States
Beautiful - the reflection and the ripples really make this image stand out, and your composition is excellent. The water is an unusual color - did you process the image to get that or was it natural?

@Chris: Thanks, Chris ... the setting was so beautiful I just snapped away. The water color is natural, probably colored by algae.
MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom
The reflection is glorious Judy a beautiful shot. There is something soothing about watching Swans glide through the water.

Okay, I'll do swans and you do weddings; that's a deal. <grin>
The trouble is, we rarely see swans where we live!
