Another photo of these two swans (previous ones here).

I like this photo but I’m not sure I can explain as to why.
I think it has to do with the colour balance and the simplicity of the scene, but it might also have to do with how the rain affect’s the pond’s surface.

This is my submission into the one hundred-and-ninety-first Lens-Artists Photo Challenge.

The theme for this one is “Curves“.

I think this photo counts for the challenge due to the curve in the adult swan’s neck, as well as the curves from the ripples caused by rainfall.

The host of the Lens-Artists challenges cycles weekly between the following people:

Week 1 – Patti

Week 2 – Ann-Christine aka Leya

Week 3 – Amy

Week 4 – Tina

This year three people are joining the Lens-Artists team:

John Steiner of Journeys with Johnbo

Sofia Alves of  Photographias

Anne Sandler of Slow Shutter Speed

As such the above hosting order is likely to change.

This one is curated by Leya. The next one is curated by Amy.

I recommend participating in the challenges. They’re enjoyable and allow room for interpretation of the theme without straying too far. If you don’t participate, then I recommend that you at least check out what others of the Lens-Artists community are submitting.

I hope you enjoy.
