Swan's are very elegant and amazing to photograph, but you may be wandering how this has anything to do with my subject area of plants, flowers and landscape. This swan came flying over me, at first i thought it were a goose, however i felt it were a perfect opportunity to get some life on the lake. In recent photographs i took for landscape of the lake it had not much life, however this i felt i could get the landscape with some lift. What better than a swan, their so photogenic. I love the stillness, also theirs the little ripples from the swan moving, this creates movement, however you feel your watching this swan is moving slowly and lazily. I like to use reflections in any way possible as i feel it adds interest to the subject, you also get that added sense of calmness from this photograph. The lighting on that morning was perfect for the lake, the lighting wasn't too bright neither not enough, which had an effect on this swan, as you see detail and not all just purely white. It adds that elegance. The contrast also in this photograph has come out very well, and this is my favourite from the whole photo shoot.
