I love the asymmetrical balance in this picture, and how the subject is of centered. The ripples of water radiating off the duck adds great texture as well. The colors in this photo also work really well together. The only thing i would change about this photo would be the shadows and darker spaces around the subject.

I love this picture! The main subject is in focus and the lighting works well with the subject. I like how the photograph shows a lot of water that have ripples, creating a nice contrast to the swan's feathers. I think this image would look really could in black in white because the swan would become a stronger subject. This photo gives off a peaceful feeling making the viewer feel relaxed, as if they were really there.

I like how the subject is in focus as well as the background. I like how the light is reflection off the water is broken up by the ripples in the water.

I live around Star Lake, so I love that this picture captures the beauty of it. I like the way the ripples in the water create circular lines emphasizing the swan. Also, I like the way the light reflects off of those ripples. I like the placement of the subject (how it is off center). I think that the picture could use a little more saturation of color, since the swan and the water are both so pale.

I really like the way this picture is in focus because it feels to me like the emphasis is more on the colors and ripples of the water instead of on the swan its self. I also enjoy how you made the picture soft and calm with the water being smooth, the colors warm, and the swan just swimming along.

This picture is awesome! I love the way the swan is looking away from the camera and creating some interest in the photo. The lighting is great because you are able to see a glimpse of the sun setting. The swan really pops out in the picture with the dark water as a kind of background. I'd really like to see a little more color in this picture so that the sun and the swan can stand out even more than they already do.

This picture is really cool. I Love the lighting because there is not too much of it. It makes the water stand out and the little features stand out just enough so you can see it. I also like the way the ripples look in the water.

I love the color! It’s not so bright and obnoxious but its just so subtle and sweet. I like how the photo has capture the bird moving, and the shadow in the water. It’s really beautiful.
