Icarus
Viewed the sand sculpture contest at Canon Beach and stopped at Ecola. Beautiful day-added bonus: 5 parasails. They floated on the warm updrafts like birds (an eagle joined one of them for a moment, but I missed the shot). I darkened the original substantially and added some saturation.

This is nice and creative concept Jim. You got good detail in the sail. It must have been difficult getting the light and color so well done in the sail. Nice job!

Aptly titled. A captivating image. Very nicely processed. I wouldn't feel too bad about missing the eagle.

That's too cool Jim. Well seen and captured.
