p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Love on a lake

Watching swans go through there mating dance is always a delight. Most people know of the hart they create in the process there is a lot more to it. Here are some images of the act and it was interesting to see there child watching. They did not mate as they sometimes do at the end. I removed a partial view of the child from the last two, in the next to the last via content aware fill and cloning and in the last by cropping.

So sweet. Those fluffed up necks look like feather boas. Good set Morris.

Excellent captures Morris, IMO the 3rd swan and the duck in the the first three images is/ are a distraction. If this were mine, I would crop out, clone them out.
