Color, tones, lighting - all oustanding. Fits challenge. Good focus & composition - but faces seem like they would have really helped. All in all, excellent work.

Okay, I really gotta get a better handle on my post processing. Really well seen from start to finish. I guess sometimes when the weather doesn't co-operate, you've just gotta make your own vision.

This shot really exemplifies the catching of a mood from a time of day adn perfection of light that is great- because it is not a blatant and overt as a sunset. Its really a documentary or action piece because your eye can't rest because of the water and the color of the pools.
Maybe its just the crop or focal length. Anyway, this is really nice and accomplishes a great deal. Certainly serene. (that sounds like an adult urinary protection product, sorry)

Opting for Flight

Comment by Bear_Music:
For those who said they "could not see a decision" here, and for the record, I crouched witht he camera trained on these gulls for nearly 15 minutes as they bickered and sparred with one another, until finally the one made the deision to take off and be done with it. The image is the actual instant when he implemented that decision. The "head down" pose is the giveaway, they drop their heads as they are lifting off.

Entering this was a no-brainer, as I had no other "decision" images from which to choose. In fact I had not intended to enter, but I was out shooting for "beauty" this particular dawn and this opportunity presented itself.

Thanx, all, for commenting.
