Beautiful shot Paul- This would have worked as a silhouette or even contre-jour as well- underrated for sure.

removed commentary regarding silhouette challenge comparison, and please accept my apology on this as it was not a proper thing to do

i do still find the tree silhouette overly much here, but you can't keep the bird in the capture with the sun otherwise, so i can understand the crop being what it is.

still have to keep this at a 5 for now, we'll see if it gets a bump up on my 2nd pass when i've finished the entirety of my voting
