Beautiful! That's one big bird in the air. I especially like the corner-to-corner composition.

That composition is suberb. I love the way he is reaching to break out of the frame

Excellent composition and good exposure. Blur isn't bad but would have been nice to see the body sharper.

I think the diagonal works well. The movement of the wings makes it a very dynamic image.

I hardly ever see swans flying. It's amazing how long those wings are!

Love the great diagonal composition. Normally I don't like the wings to be so close to the edge, but it works on this one. Were you hand holding at 1/200 500mm on this? If so you did a great job with the camera shake. It is a little blurry, but not enough to ruin the photo. I'm also amazed at the great exposure control on the white bird with light background, I know how tough that can be.

So unique. I never see a photo of a swan in flight. I like how you have this composed with the wingspan diagonal. You can divide the image with two triangles which makes it pleasing to the eye.
