Hi Jill,
Thanks so much for your kind remarks, I took my little boy to the park yesterday, there is a pond there, and this lovely swan followed us all along the shore. Bonus for me:) #936211

Karen, when you mentioned you painted this, please tell me how you did this to achieve such a beautiful effect. Great picture. Thank you. #980655

Bunny Snow December 17, 2004

Well done!

Did you fill the frame before you snapped the shutter, or crop well afterwards? Either way, you did a good!

And the detail from the lighting is terrific. Was the sun at an approximate 45 degree angle in the sky? Or, was all that detail texture painted in?

I'd love to know what software and techniques created this fine piece of work!
