Default Swan Lake
I've not taken a pic of a swan like this before, but thought i'd convert it to mono because its a swan, how many swan pics do we see, I hope it stays here and not moved to the 'birds' thread with it being a mono pic....

A classic 'swan' pic - well done! Love the reflections.

I'll leave it to the B&W moderator to move it to the Birds forum .

This photo has a nice balance to it, and the reflection looks great.
Are the white specks from reflections also.
I wonder what it would look like with out the specks.

Personally, I like the specs as they are. They add interest to me. I also like how the water is not just pure black. As you look more closely you can see subtle shading, which I think would be most appreciated in a large print. Definitely more to this shot than meets the eye .
