Lovely - but if I may, crop top and left sides to leave you with good rule of thirds composition

.

I really like it, Chauncey.....especially the beautiful light on their plumage and bills.
I may have tried to shoot it tighter so that the swans (and the gorgeous light on them) take up more of the frame, but then again you were already using the 2x, and one can only do what one's focal length allows.

"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".
