Many thanks Sandra.... it's funny as I also liked the look of the little wave.

I really appreciate your comment thanks Andy. I did get a few close ups of this guy that turned out reasonably sharp.
With some of the shots of these swans, I found I got a definite blue hue in the black feathers of the swans.
Perhaps Black Swans are sort of blue/black, especially when the sun shines on them.

Thanks again Wanda for taking the time to look and comment. I think my preference is also my close up shot.
