 Anhinga, (Anhinga anhinga), on the Saint John's river near Astor, Florida. They often sit with wings outstretched, after swimming. Image taken from a boat. (Processed in Lightroom to black & white and added a sketch filter.)

The dark background showcases the Anhinga very nicely. The spread wing pose is excellent, and the "sketch" filter, in combination with the black and white conversion, worked beautifully. I'm pleased that the eye is clearly shown. Best viewed with a click for the dark surroundings. Very nicely done, Janet.

I like the contrasts on this one , similar to your other B&W. The wings show up well, as does the eye. This is a very nice feel to it. I wonder though, if the top of the head could be just a touch lighter, to stand out more. Or perhaps you want it to blend into the background. It could work well either way I think.
