There was a beautiful blue sky yesterday, but a really biting icy wind. My hands went numb waiting for these two swans, to create this heart shape. :) I cropped out another swan who wanted to be in on the shot and added a little softness, for a romantic feel, awww! :D
Have a great weekend everyone :)
Any tips or constructive criticism are welcome :)
I really appreciate all your comments, thank you so much. I'm only sorry I've not got time to respond. I do read all the comments and will try to answer any questions you have about my posts :)
Ohhhh, so beautiful, that is what I thought when this opened. Stunning image Mary. The background and softness is just perfect.
