Judith Morgan, Harmony at the Lake (SOFT LIGHT - Entries close 31 May 2026)

This image of Mute Swans and Canada Geese was taken at Glencoyne Bay in the Lakes District of England. Exposure was 1/200s at f/10 with exposure bias -0.33eV and 320 ISO. Focal length was 74mm. The camera was hand held. I used Lightroom to edit the image, cropping to a 2:1 ratio. Clarity and texture were reduced to provide a painterly look, and a slight vignette was applied.

Images have been resized for web display, which may cause some loss of image quality. Note: Original high-resolution images are used for judging.
