 Of course I am a big Neil Diamond fan (1972-1977 actually). So this is Jonathan Livingstone Seagull today. Alone. Shot this on the day of the Waldo Challenge. In fact, this is the same seagull that landed on the pier.

EDIT: Just Grayscale, Duotone, Levels, Noise Ninja, USM..not in that order.

PREDICTION: Not sure on this one...could be anything.

Nice b/w. I like the nails in the wood. Along with the bird of course. Congratulations on a great finish.

excellent photo. i really liked the idea of no colour in this one. solitude is a theme which works well this way. good framing, but somehow i feel like the cropping is not right. 6
