I was your only 10! :) It's rare that I don't comment on a 10, but I wasn't sure what to say. It's simply a beautiful shot. I would say that it looks like a pen and ink drawing, and has some of the characteristics of a good pen and ink, but also some great textures like you might see in a charcoal drawing. I like how the strong lines divide this picture into sections, and each section seems to have something different to say. Also, you caught the bird perfectly, you lucky so-and-so! ;) But luck is the residue of skill (and hard work), of course.

How did you get that gull to pose for you?
It's rare to find a photo that so craftily juxtaposes the ugliness of moldering industrial structures and the beauty of the natural process that are reducing them to ruin. Very nice job.

Nice silhouetting. Great job showing the power and turbulence of the water. The building at left is somewhat distracting.
