Ohhhhh. . .I LOVE THIS!!! I love it more the more I look at it. I like how it looks kind of grungy and almost harsh. It turns it from a picture of a bird -- to ART!

Sweet - I like the darkness and the texture - adds a mystery to it.

I love it in B&W. I like how the light chose to spotlight the bird (or you chose your position that way, whichever...). Lovely shot.

So very lovely! Amazing ocean view (I'm a native Californian and I must admit I sure do miss the ocean) and wonderful capture of sunrise colors! I love the flock of birds on the left, but after reading your comments love even more what I now know to be the flock of pelicans sitting around -- how cool! So many of your images make me nostalgic for the CA coast... this is at the top of that list :-)
