I used aperture priority and center weighted metering with auto focus. The time of day 11:00 is not the best for this but hey thats when I had the camera and the opportunity. I would like to have better detail of the swans heads. Please make any suggestions and thank you ahead for your help.

Great shots Ruthiel...the only way you are going to get more detail in their heads is to zoom in tight for a close up...
Not swans, but this is what I do when I want more detail...
