Surveying His Kingdom

D700-030311-116

This cormorant had a nice perch to enjoy the view of the pretty greens in the field on the hillside. I was attracted by the three layers of dark cloudy sky, field and trees, and the water of the small lake. It is a study in contrasts.

One of those hybrid shots that's 60% color and 40% B&W. ;-)

I like it. For some reason it makes me think it's sitting on the Loch Ness monsters back.
