My latest swan shots · 05:13 PM

I think I have done at least a hundred swan shots just this spring, some of them I am pleased with, here are a few...

Neat Swan shots. Especially number one. I like the play of light and shadows on the bird.

Three great shots

Jimbo · 05-02-2009, 07:45 PM

These are great Georg. Love the third one. JIM

Wow! Fantastic. The sunset? light makes the pics sweet and sharp too

roentarre · 05-03-2009, 12:54 AM

The first shot is really my favorite. The dribbling of the water makes it very artistic

Thanks Jim! I thought the last one was a classing pose, so to speak.

Very nice shots, I like the third one...well done.

**Rense** · 05-03-2009, 04:54 AM

Great shots again Georg. You managed well to keep detail in the white feathers!

daacon · 05-03-2009, 05:05 AM

Swans are hard to expose well done georg . #2 is my favorite the neck almost looks golden.

Maffer · 05-03-2009, 05:08 AM

Excellent stuff! The first one looks most artistic (light, composition and the direction the swan is swimming/looking into) and the other two would go well in some book about birds describing how a swan looks like.

raider · 05-03-2009, 07:00 AM

I like swan pics as well. I like #1 and #2. Well done!!!

**Sailor** · 05-03-2009, 07:11 AM

Wow, Georg - these are really special. I enjoyed them a great deal.

I like the top one best, it has nice light.
Its a different angle too, which is great.

Nice shots! I agree about the first one....it has a very dramatic feel to it.
