I love the smooth gradient and lovely colors in the background. The shot is so simple it almost looks like black vector graphics on a photoshopped gradient background. Great shot. I also just realized it looks like the bird is wearing boots!

I like the color and sillouette, but I'm with Karen, those little boots are ... confusing/odd?

Thanks everyone, and an explanation:
the "bird" is wearing boots, the gull in question can be seen on every public beach in Helsinki. Also, it's fat enough not to be able to fly any more, so I guess boots are really needed for walking

Apart from the boots issue this pic is simply stunning.

Happy shooting,

Sweet silhouette!

In gumboots, it's probably just a Kiwi gull on holiday.
