Not really, of course.

I've heard of the "Headless Horseman of the Apocalypse", but Headless Swans was a new one on me.

You did well there with exposure on the feathers, nothing looks blown at all, as often is the way with these.

Thanks. Actually, it is a bright, sunny day but I tried spot metering, which helps avoid the blown out whites. Original was even darker, so the exposure was upped by 2/3.
