Astonishing shot - and great title.

This is a great blend of abstract and detailed all rolled into one.

There's something so cool and different about this that makes you want to stop and figure out what is going on. I love how the black contrasty trail follows the bird and cuts thru the smooth blue and white. Interesting processing here.

This is one of the most beautifully done photographs I've ever seen.

I do hope you offer this as a print.

Brilliant concept & capture. The only thing that detracts slightly for me is the post processing. There's some jaggedness in the details of the bird, particularly around the beak and wing edges. Also, there is a grainy/posterized feel particularly in the waves. (keep in mind I am far from a processing expert)

Still, this is among my favorite photos in this challenge and I hope you do well with the votes. Congratulations.

Just amazing. I love how the wake behind the bird is so crisp and clear compared to the rest of the water. My pick for blue.
