Wow!
the combination of reflected light really picking out bird details and back light lighting up those feathers really makes this special. Set against a central sum to boot. Magic. I've never made my camera go that fast before.

Ahh.. I was hoping he'd take flight. The new day can do that to a person - the sun is magic, you know ;)
Thank you...

Icarus is a good metaphor for this image, Jenene. Kal speaks of the promise of a new day by incongruously suspending a gull before the blazing sun. The powerful juxtaposition of these natural elements makes the boats in the background seem trivial.

Thanks for the recent visit Kal...this is simply wonderful not only because it is an excellent capture in very difficult conditions..but also because of your kind thoughts behind the posting..very apt...particularly the concept of breaking free.... well thats what it means to me.

For the fast shooter speed along with the smal aperture.
I assume it was a very, very bright day...
Interesthing photo... Darkness at heavy sunlight.
