Sleeping Swans

Colour landscape photograph. The top half of the photograph is a mostly cloudy sky. The clouds are coloured dark blue, white, purple, and indigo. The lower half of the photo is a pond/lake. Around the water in about the vertical middle of the photo, there are trees, bushes, sticks, grass, and dirt. The trees and bushes have green leaves. On the left side of the photo, the trees appear closer and are taller than those on the right. About two-thirds of the way from the left, the land curves and water appears to go behind the land but the land is still visible on the other side of the water. Along the land on the right side, bullrushes with fluffy tops can be seen in clumps. Close to the edge of the water near the left side, there are two white swans, both who appear to be sleeping with their necks down. The water of the pond is calm and reflects the land and sky in a mirror image. Along the forefront of the water, patches of tall green grass growing out of the water can be seen (one small patch just off centre on the left, two just off centre on the right, and two closer to the right side). The photograph is in a black frame.
