Thank you, hope my mix of tones isn't overkill?

I decided to do the mixed colors to be a bit different, i guess i'm starting off with a rather normal picture and putting my artistic take on it.

Lovely shot.

Thank you very much, it was very much a bit of an experiment in Lr by taking out the color around the swan and reducing the sharpness of the greyscale to put more focus on the swan.
