This is gorgeous, what a spectacular closeup of this swan, this would have been a fantastic entry for the Birds contest! Excellent focus and exposure capturing the detailing in the feathers and bill, the green background really sets off this bird's profile beautifully. Best wishes in the voting!

A very sharp closeup photo of this swan. It has a very focused look. I like the muted background as it accentuates the subject.
My only suggestion is the white balance. The swan has a blue cast to it. That can easily be corrected in camera or in post.

A very sweet and endearing visual presented here of this one. I love the angle that you used to capture as sweet face. The background just adds to the amazing scene. Beautifully done. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from soulfeeder
Great focus and angle showcasing its blue beak and gold face as well as his eye.
His white plumage accentuates with the green contrasting background. You've framed this well in this landscape orientation. A well captured portrait of Mr. White Swan. A delight to view.

First class shot of this swan with great detail and dof,the whiteness in the swan is crystal clear and although a tight crop it does show of this bird really well,one thing i would have done would to have left a bit more room in front of the beak[minor detail though]...Brian
