Description

Swan Lake by Kathy K. McClellan is a photographic image created for Week 16 of the 52 week Art Challenge (Theme: The World Outside).

Driving around to see Christmas lights is one of my favorite childhood memories. Years later as an adult my parents took my husband and I to Oglebay Park in Wheeling, West Virginia (USA). There we rode through six miles to view hundreds of thousands of lights celebrating the holiday season.

This photograph of a lighted display of swans was taken at Callaway Gardens in Pine Mountain, Georgia (USA). While there we rode through seven miles of lighted displays featuring 10 million lights.

The lighted characters and displays were bright against the dark of night and several displays were set up on ponds and lakes resulting in brilliant reflections in the water.

What you see in this image is a lighted display of a mother swan and two of her offspring, called cygnets, sitting on top of the water and each is reflected in the still surface of the pond.
