...dont have a time to plough troug galleries/messages, just got 2 rolls of pics, scanned and had little time to post this. From last autumn, desaturation and contrast, but no other postwork. Grain is from scanner & 400 film. Have a nice weekend, all of you. .n

How serene an image this is..! So many echoing reflections and symmetries... Strong composition where the inclusion of those......I do not remember their names......those water plants [sorry, :)]at the right somehow adding much... A decisive moment capture with the swans looking at opposite directions... Light, tones... Well, this is beautiful..!

Minus the grainess this has the elegance of a Mapplethorpe. Well done!
