At the time I took this shot I thought this was a magpie but as I worked on the photo that profile looks more like some kind of Kestrel or other bird of prey to me. The Australian Kestrel is pretty common in these parts. This is a sunrise not a sunset. I cheated on this one, the original photo was cropped to suit my old screen, I wanted to change the aspect ratio for my new widescreen but didn't want to lose much from top or bottom via a crop, so I used the perspective tool to "stretch" the left side of the photo. If I didn't tell you you wouldn't know. :) Worth playing with, the perspective tool. I hope you enjoy the final result as much as I do.

Mikel.
