nice shot Trevor, i can see the light on the beak was a problem for you.
i saw one of these recently in pembrokshire, also with other mute swans. they didn't seem to like him much. i hear black swans are common in australia.

Good shot Trevor, may I say it's your best swan shot so far!!!
I would have liked to have seen a bit more background above his head but thats my personnal preference.

Hi Trevor .. sometimes if you use the clone stamp on the beak and only have it set for about .. 25 % or so .. you can work it in .. so there wouldn't be the blown out white on the beak .. it takes a little time and fiddling about .. There is lots of the black swans in Australia .. I have been there a few times and seen lots of them there ...
Cheers
Else
