Description
San Francisco's Palace of Fine Arts is inspired from Roman and Greek architecture, with a lush, surrounding garden and a circular lagoon that harmoniously blend with this classical setting of the Marina district. Intended to echo the splendor of the building, the lake is home to many forms of wildlife, including various waterbirds that provide beautiful scenery to visitors. An elegant swan regally glides by, sometimes curving his long neck gracefully while engaged in meticulous cleaning of his silky white feathers.

The composition is fabulous, and the choice of black for the background is the perfect complement. Like/f
