Left Alone

...and -18 C.

Magic light, focus and color. Original photo.

This is one of those images where I have to take a deep breath and give an honest critique. The fog (whether real or post-processed) immediately above the lake, and then in the sky, but with a band of more detail on the shore, makes this image seem a bit wierd visually. Also, if the swan is the primary compositional element, it needs to be a little bit 'lifted' through localised exposure (and/or contrast) compensation. A nicely thought out image but I would play with it more in post to get the best out of it.

Wonderful colors! Interesting gentle mood
