I love the first image....It's everything a picture of these elegant birds should be....soft colours, soft light...lovely.

I dislike the second image though. The processing is "overcooked", resulting in the swan looking harsh and dirty with very noticable halo-ing.


BUYING A CANON DOESN'T MAKE YOU A PHOTOGRAPHER, IT MAKES YOU A CANON OWNER.

Have to agree with DigiDiva. I often ask myself when enough is enough and it is sometimes very difficult to fathom. Pull back a little on the processing of that second shot and it will be a winner.


Have plenty of Canons, enough ammo, enough to blow 'em to "L". Now, I just have to learn to aim.
