Swan
To make some first shots with my new Nikon D300, I went to the Bachtel Weiher, a little lake in the outskirts of Kempten. Though it´s not the best place to go swimming ,it is really nice just to relax on the bank and to enjoy the view around. I discovered some swans and ducks afield, so I decided to wait until they would come a little bit closer. I spent the time taking some pictures of the reed that was growing on the waterside (you can take a look at the Workshop), until one swan finally drew near. So, as a result, I eventually got this picture.

I´m glad of any advice, hint or proposition, that could help me to improve my photography.

Hello Jonas,

Perhaps more for TrekNature, but what a wonderful reflection you have captured here!! Deep, deep blues as well in the water, creating a perfect gradual all over. Nice soft bokeh in the further away background. Yep, very nice camera you got there! Which lense did you use here?

Greetings!
Dennis

Thats so tranquil and peaceful with lovely colours and tones. i love the serenity of this shot and the way its been compsoed

Hi Jonas,
ja da ist es ja wieder! Also ich muss sagen was ein Weg die neue Kamera einzuweihen, wunderschöne Farben, klasse Qualität und diese Spiegelungen, einfach super, das gefällt mir richtig gut! Ohne sie wäre das Bild nicht halb so schön gewesen aber mit ihnen ist es einfach klasse. Tolle Blautöne und exzellentes "framing"

Beste Grüße
Mark

Jonas,
True this is more up the alley of TN, but once in a while we can enjoyed this kind of images as well, especially if it's this good quality. I love the calm and softness of the water. the swan seem to be posing for you and actually have eye contact with you. Perfect sharpness and clarity. Personally I like just tiny bit more space for it but the large frame compensate for that. Great job here. Thanks.

Hey,
boa echt net schlecht ich finds geil,
Das licht hat genau den Kopf getroffen und die refklektion ist auch super gelungen
Schöner Kontrast auch zu den wasser.
War schon lustig am Bachtelweiher^^
Also bis morgen
Toba

Olá Jonas, behond this level of image quality, it's almost impossible for me to give you advices ;-) Congratulations on your new toy. The image is simple but very enjoyable. Love the softness of the water surface and the beautiful reflection effect.

Hi Jonas,

I like much this light of end-of-day on this splendid swan. Qualities of the image are undeniable in particular the clearness of the image and the purity of the reflection. Really I like much this animal portrait. Beautiful work Jonas and thank you for the complementary photograph which proposes a good bokeh to us.

With all my friendships and a very good evening,

Jean-Charles

Excellent colors and clarity, a graceful and dreamy image....

TFS,
Andreea

Congratulations on your new camera; you certainly have good taste. ;D
This is a wonderful "double" portrait of the swan. I assume you were fully zoomed in as the background is nicely blurred yet the swan and its reflection are pin sharp. Perfect exposure on the whites in full sun. Well done
Kath

Was für eine perfekte Spiegelung auf der Wasseroberfläche. Ein Bild wert für eine Kunstausstellung.
Viele Grüße,
Achim

Hola amigo Jonas:

It is a simple and elegant composition of the Swan, the colors and the light are good, perhaps the result had been better with a horizontal and not centered framing, in any case an agreeable image.

Un saludo.

Bonjour Jonas,
un miroir un peu troubél par les mouvements de la nage majestueuse du cygne.
J'aime ce dégradé de bleu de haut en bas.
Une photo douce et calme.
Regards.

Hi Jonas,
Great double portrait of this swan. The colour of the sky and its reflection on the water is perfect and the light on the swan too, no overexposition.
I posted a swan and its reflection some weeks ago... I think this kind of photo has something magic and i like yours.
Regards,
Marianne

Bonjour Jonas,
Joli ce cygne avec son reflet dans l'eau et l'eau bien bleue.
J'aime bien les ronds formés par les moumentsdu cygne.
Salut! P'tit Caïd.
