Meet "Independence" the oldest of the male swans at Crandon Gardens. To me, one of the most elegant birds there is!

Georgina,

This is pretty neat! A different perspective certainly. I think I'd like to see the whole beak, but its intriguing as is. Is the background another swan? Interesting how their neck will be the off-white coloring while the body is much lighter.

Looks like a very fun activity!

I like the composition. Maybe a little fill to bring out detail in the face?

Lots of interesting lines and textures to enjoy here. The color of the neck really stand out against the cleaner white parts of the bird.
