Nice set Robert.
Looks like the swan is getting an escort in the first one!
Second one is my favourite, you are right it is like seeing double

Wow, nice! That first shot with the mergs all around the swan is very cool, at least for the subject matter. #2 is very nice also.

I'm now listening to a song (cover) from Dylan's first album...

I'm not sure if that was what you intended.

The mergies in 1 really demonstrate just how big the swan is! 2 is real nice but the last is my favorite. It is quite a touching scene.

#2 is so neat! I wonder what they were both looking at - some tasty morsel swimming underneath the surface? I also like the last shot - it's beautiful in a very stark way, and shows their reaction to the onset of cold weather.

Bob - I like the way the muted colors echo the B&W feel, but add a bit of tone to the last shot.

Jim the last is my personal favorite of the set also. The rear cover of the book uses this shot:
