Got an 8 from me - beautiful gentle shot.

Beautiful, and your choice of toning gives is a melancholy feel that works very well.

This make me say "awwwwww..." I like the monochrome treatment. The detail in the feathers is pleasing. But somehow this lacks balance, in my eyes.

Nice photo other than the vignette. To me a vignette looks like a lens probelm so I don't care for them.

Very moody and the duotone adds to this.

Lovely portrait! I love the toning and even like the vignetting - it adds to the elegance of the bird.

I think if I touch my screen I am going to feel the smoothness of this white plumage. Very sweet (9)

One of the nicer swan shots on here, you can get the emition from your title and it fits this shot perfectly. love the close up and ground level of this, crisp and clean 10

I am slightly disturbed by the areas where the bird meets the background. Not sure if it was the camera or editing. Anyway, I'd buy it - 10.

Isn't it funny how we can put human emotion into an image? Cool.

Brilliant image and black and white conversion which both brings out the strength of the black and white plummage whilst at the same time endowing them with a softness which is visually very appealing. The framing you have used works very well
