The Daily Norm photo of the week: Swan lake

A new working week has begun after a few days’ happy Easter explorations, and with that week comes a new opportunity to show off a photo or two with which I am especially excited. And today’s photo (and its two accompanying shots) is certainly worth a post all of its own. It depicts one of two swans who live in the locality of Palma de Mallorca’s magnificent cathedral and ancient Moorish Palace. Swimming around in a sunlit pool all of their own, the swans look the very picture of grace at the best of times, but with their feathers so beautifully arched as they were when this photo was taken, and with the sun shining upon the water, they made for a stunning photographic vision.

I love the fact that in addition to the sunlight shining through the green waters of the small lake, this photo also benefits from the rippled reflection of a nearby historical arch, adding interest to this enchanting composition. The perfect vision of a swan, and a lake.
