Pleasing. Sort of mesmerising and slightly spiritual. Just the thing for the location: contemplative. Thank you.

great composition with the bird shape that's almost a silhouette, the glass cracks, the swooping windshield, etc

My favorite of all the crow pictures you've posted, too. I did like the cracked window a lot, but this processing works for this guy.

That's it Marion. He did it!

I see some halos around the bird that appear with the high structure. You could reduce the opacity or just go around and erase the contour. But interestingly enough, because of the broken glass, the halos are not too disruptive.
This is not film noir yet, but has a good story. If you turn the white at the top of the car into black and add some discreet vignette the story can become more frightening

that broken windshield lends quite a bit of interest to the background

I like the graininess of this one, and the composition that centers the bird

I do think the b&w treatments, either one, have an edge on the color version - but I think crows lend themselves very well to b&w generally :)

Comment by krnodil:
of the two b&w options, I rather like the greater contrast on this one more, but wish the detail in the cracked glass wasn't so blown out on this one
