It wouldnt hurt my eyes to see a 16:9 crop of this image. Crop away the bottom of the picture and repost

Thanks for the comments. Here's a 16:9 crop, a good suggestion I like:

Very beautiful, both versions, the elegance of the swan and the glorious colours.

On balance, I prefer the original crop - I find it slightly more dynamic and unconventional.

Very well seen and executed! 
I like the second (16:9) crop better, as it emphasizes the horizontal elements of the photo. 
Well done.

Jørgen, you have a winner there!

I like the 16:9 crop better. The backlit swan reflected in the water, the deep shadow and golden highlight creates a wonderful moody and peaceful picture. Get it up on the wall!

In this particular case, I also prefer the 16:9 crop.  It is a fantastic image!

[David Paterson]

Yes, beautiful image.

Thanks a lot for all the comments. On the wall you say, hrm...maybe I should try that.

Impressive colours and tone.  Although the crop is better I immediately envisaged a portrait version. But the image is so strong, all would fit, I guess.

That's a beautiful one, Jørgen !

It deserves to be printed and framed...

Well done !

Your wish is my command, here's a go at a portrait version.
