I love this unusual perspective my dear Nicki. What a refreshing change to normal swan photography. Excellent details from spot on focus, stunning tones and beautifully presented. I also love the clear details in the ripples surrounding the swan's body. Well done to my clever girl, great photography. A big HUG to you sweetie and all my very best wishes as always.....Ray
