Hello! I am from ProjectComment with the word "elegant".
I chose this one because I have always though of swans as elegant with how they look and move and such.
For this photo it is a very clear and the details such as the wings are well shown along with the ripples in the water from the movement. The photo shows just the subject and slight surroundings which helps draw attention to the subject. The colours are well shown and not dull, and the sun gives it almost a glowing look.
Your turn! Your word is ":Noticeable" for sisiziur gallery!

Such a graceful and majestic creature, the swan. Especially as it ruffles its feathers while sailing idly by on the lake’s surface… that kind of thing would be a pleasure to witness.
There’s quite a nice sense of clarity in how the lake was shot, from the bubbles rippling across the surface to the still waters in the background, and the swan in focus certainly looks stunning as it paddles across.
Honestly though, I wasn’t too sure about the lighting balance (Like the head being a bit dark versus some feathers coming out too bright). In certain areas it kind of resembles an eraser rubbing out some of the photo. But despite all that, I could accept the sacrifice because I could really see where you were going with the title and the shot in question.
That lighting seems to give a shadow effect of the feathers inside, and I have to say, that was rather well done. It gives it that unique finishing touch, to say the least.
Overall, this should make for some wonderful stock, and even as a standalone photo, it’s very well shot. You’ve done great capturing the fast motion, the details are clear as day, and you’ve captured the colours nicely. Keep it up!

Wow, thank you for this detailed analysis!
I went with it to a critique event, and I got some suggestions how to improve some of the points you also touched. As soon as I will have some time, I will try to integrate the suggestions
