swan in sunlight

The swan which turned its back on me and caused merriment for Ray and Sylv watching, later posed nicely for a photo at Mottisfont.

It's converted OK to b&w I think.

looking back at it in colour I rather like the mono version:

I like the colour too but this one does highlight the structural elements like the water trail.
