Whoopers in mist.
There was hardly any colour in this anyway so I thought I would try it in BW. I would really have liked to show more of the ice but had to crop out distracting stones etc.

Thanks

this does look a very nice image, although I feel 720 pixels doesn't do it justice. I bet it looks great at full res.

I agree with Matt. I think this needs a big canvas.
Great picture anyhow.

Nice. I'd be interested in seeing a crop around the right hand group of birds, no ground.

Have to say I also think this would look magnificent printed big :smile:

Its a shame it can only be displayed small here as I am also sure it looks fantastic when seen larger, excellent comp and atmospherics.
