Serenety

I have a lot on this week and as I have a variety of shots from yesterday, I will use these as I am unlikely to be photographing unless for a different challenge that I have undertaken through Lent.
Serenety - a title of honor, respect, or reverence, used in speaking of or to certain members of royalty. Appropriate for a swan settling down for the night in the calm of the lakeside, I thought.

This is a lovely silhouette. The plants in the foreground make the picture for me. Take out the top third background & you have another lovely picture.

@paulmann Thanks. Yes I thought about that, but wasn't sure.

Beautiful pic...love it in black n white.

[Gayle]

Beautiful capture!

This is beautiful Helen and looks good on black. Swans are so graceful and regal and you've certainly captured that feel here.

Beautiful in B & W. The title is perfect too.

[Kate Goring]

Wonderful shot Helen. The title couldn't be a better fit.

Delightful image. It could almost be a pen and ink image! Well thought out and a strong composition! Well done!
