Flying Swan - Leave as is or change a bit ?

[hape]

Hello,
picture taken with E-300, 40-150mm Kit lens @ 150mm, 1:5.6, 1/400s, free hand
Should the white rim by the sunlight ( front of wings ) stay as it is or darkened a bit ?
There was no time for experimenting after a fast get-camera-sprint ....

Sincerely
hape

leave it well alone, it is one of if not the best shot of a Mute Swan I've ever seen

talk about a compliment!

I don't see what you could change about it even if you wanted to. my vote is for leaving it alone :thumbup:

Leave it like it is. I looks very majestic and clean with the blue background.

Hello,
prefer to use image manipulation very carefully.
So your feedback is nice to hear.

Thanks

This picture is great, I rarely see swans flying at all. Perfect composition, nothing distracting, the lighting is very nice too. Those wings look beautiful.
