This swan is special... Something in the stark contrast of black and white makes her stand out. The black, clear water (appearing clear thanks to the reflections) seems very cold, and the swan even more noble for it.
Also, in the swan itself you managed to achieve almost photographic impression, yet it's clear the picture is painted. Since I don't like photorealism, that's another plus for me. And similarly to the orca you managed to convey the feeling of movement, though here appropriately slow and proud.

Great work!
