Taken in the Iveagh Gardens today - I like the waterfall effect but open to suggestions for improvement. Handheld unfortunately.

I think it was a tad hot.

Folks, what could I have done to take a better image?

I think Hugh prefers the Female form naked. :pac:

Is this swan male or female?

It looks better when seen large (who can). And it is still about 20% crop from the original image. Another proof that my camera is much better then it's user.

What and How Thonda?

Well, I got bored and I was looking at the smoke dancing it's way from my scent-box. I have started against the white window. Next was dark background and ambient light. After that a desk lamp. And then wirelessly triggered flash against the camera. And I edned up with the flash below the scent-box (still with the black background). Some obstacles to prevent light from flash falling onto the background and also onto the lens.
I have to say that focusing 100 macro lens on smoke in pitch dark room was was harder than I had expected.
I'll post the whole set, hopefully after the weekend. I have to figure out few details about processing this pictures. You could see some imperfections in darker tones in full size picture.
