Nice literal interpretation. Its cool that you could frame 7 and only 7 swans in your frame.

The light is a bit harsh on the back of the swans. A little annoying that the there is a small portion of the bottom one cut off. Would be nice to have a little more visible details in the water.

Nearly perfect - if only the one at the bottom wasn't right on the edge. Great exposure, amazing capture. 10

Interesting composition but the shot has a very unreal nature to it that I'm not sure about. I think it's the distinct blackness of the background.

A nice arrangement, and a novel perspective which works very well for the challenge. It is a shame about the slight over-exposure on the swans feathers, but white birds are notoriously hard to get right. Other than the exposure, the only ting I would change would be to include all of the swan at the bottom of the frame.

I simply love the black water - great contrast to the swans - I miss some colors on the swans bill - 7
