You captured a great view of this beautiful pair taking off – love the excellent exposure and the trailing water droplets. Very nice!

Wonderful synchronized flight poses, Robert!
The wing tip touching the water surface is the icing on the cake ...

This is a great image Robert. We have thousands of swans (both trumpeter and tundra) that winter north of Seattle. Driving around I see large numbers in almost every field. The problem I have is how to get good photos , other than closeups standing in a green field or flying through the sky. You have accomplished what I have been unsuccessful doing and give me encouragement to keep trying.
Thanks for posting this image.
