On the small image in the new image gallery, I thought, this is snow, but no, it's sand. I like sand much more! And you got the bird very well and clear. Nice Image!
It's well worth blowing up to full size. The thumbnail doesn't do it justice at all. The bird is so clearly taken, and all other elements would fade into the background anyway, but you took it that much further and created a wonderful macro effect. Very nice job :)PJ
haha i like this! like blumie..i thought that it was snow. and like PJ, enlarging it really makes it so much better. amazing clarity on the bird, and in the thumbnail i thought the houses would be distracting in the background but full scale they are not at all, they just blend right in. great capture! ~abby
