Almost surreal. The horizon almost looks like it's a painted backdrop. Well done compostition, good luck.

Well, I am gonna have to go ahead and give this a 10 and say that it is my favorite image in the Challenge. The bird really pulls it together.

This is so beautiful. I love the bw effect, the camera angle, your "Waldo", the lighting effects, the scene, the bird... 10

Delightful image, full of energy and drama. "Waldo" was easily found, but that's not critical to me for this challenge. Instead, the image you have presented is interesting and has wonderful lines and flow. It actually draws me in, like a scary movie. I'm jealous that the seagull is so clearly in focus and yet has no perceptible haloing whatsoever (whenever I shoot flying birds they always have halos, even if I don't sharpen them)! This is a "10" from me.

Great composition. The planking on the right side is a little bright for me. My eye keeps wandering to it.
