Simon...this is just beautiful...Did you use a filter and if so which one?
Isn't the swan such a lovely bird? #1519078

Thanks Judy.
I don't have any filter for my camera. This particular swan lives alone in a pond surrounded by many shady trees. On that moment, I did not notice that the clouds and blue sky were shown on the reflection until I got home. Thanks again for your nice comments :) #1523751

Oh, this is super. Did you do any editing or natural shot? #1857826

Hi Mary, I'd like to apologize for not being able to answer your question sooner. I think I accidentally deleted the notification email last year. Yes, I did some editing to the bottom right corner by elminating some rocks (with Photoshop). Thanks again for your comments. God bless you! :) #2333950
