A really wonderful silhouette. The two different tones of the BG makes for a extremely cool composition.

Luke, this works very nicely as a silhouette. The gull's position is excellent and e can even clearly see the crab. Well done.

I like tho and am glad you found it in your files. The contrast of blue and gold in the surf makes the shot for me.

Great shot Luke., love the combination of golden reflections off the sand and where the sand meets the wave edge

The Gull in shadow with a colorful background is very sweet. The crab is almost the cherry on top.
