:iconpullingcandy:
This is the most beautiful photograph I have seen all day. The sunset behind them on the water radiates throughout the entire picture, even the green sun spots are not distracting or even eye catching. Nothing could take attention away from the serene swans relaxing at dusk.
The way the water froths white into the darker liquid is mesmerizing, even in such a small version of this you can tell that the details are eye popping.
The swan in the background strutting his stuff puts emphasis on how the others are so very calm and collected, it's an interesting combination between what might be considered a male looking over his pride, as with lions. The wings also coincide with the clouds in the sky, it's incredibly streamlined, very pretty. You've managed to capture a moment in time that I would only dream about seeing, as there are really no swans where I live.
I dislike critiquing without having a suggestion to improve a photograph, the only small bit that seems out of flow with the rest is how dark it gets in the bottom left and the ripples in the bottom right, but those points are so minor that I didn't even need to bring them up. The crop, the skyline, the treeline and the water all mesh wonderfully to create the most amazing eye candy I have seen all day. Thank you for this. :)

In two words: Its amazing!

A point of improvement, the trees behind the swans are a little out of focus. :)


I love it!

Absolutely stunning.

One thing that might have improved it - get the Sun in the centre of the frame, to make a variety of hues.

Go ahead an argue with me. Many have tried, most have failed. The rest cheated.

98% of DeviantArt's anime fanbase are yaoi fans. If you are part of the 2% who aren't, copy this into your signature.

as sunshine flows into tree,
the winds will blow their own freshness into you,
and the storms their energy,
while
cares will drop off like autumn leaves.
