Ohmygosh! Sherwin!! I can't believe it isn't in the top few! The black and white is so beautiful. And the simplicity of the composition is truly awesome.

blips of detail sneaking through a blazing glory. that's kind of what life is like, what being God's creature is like. 10

I have come back to this again and have decided that I really do like the blown out space....making this a "negative space" image. The bird is clear and the detail to the left of the image is lovely. Love those outstretched toes.

I've come back to this several times. I really like the use of neg space. I'm just wondering if maybe the texture of the ground to the left is not a touch too dark. I'd maybe dodge it to make it look more like the area beneath the bird. I love his feet!!!! Nicely focused.

Too bad there is no more runway to the left for the bird to land in.
