Seagull Silhouette

Uploaded: November 17, 2002 01:18:02

Description

The seagull was sitting on some wooden pilons waiting for the sun to rise on this crisp fresh morning. I spot metered on the sky light to silouette the bird and pilons.

I like the contrast of the bird's silhoutette with the man-made shapes of whatever it is sittin on. #13268

I love the color and the deep silhouette. Silhouettes are some of my favorite shots, so you'd think I'd actually take some but I never do. I really do love this shot and most all of your other silhouettes you have posted. #247449

Thankyou Andrea I like silhouttes as well but I find its actually trying to find a good subject for a silhoutte is the real challenge. #247514
