Excellent shot, BG is tremendous. Directional light makes it look a bit harsh, but, nontheless a very nice image.

A terrific shot! It's a great BG but the shell beach makes the image for me. Very nice!

I like the fact the bird's on shells and not sand- something a little different! I like the dark bg and the raised foot. Very nice image.

Thanks all.
Wayne and Lat, it was just after sunrise when the sun popped through a hole in the cloud. Velvia may not have been the best choice here. I was just trying it out.
Cheers,
