Jeff, I really like this shot, very clean, very little noise and gives a sense a freedom. If I had a suggestion it would be to adjust the color of the clouds just a tad bit to emulate early morning or late evening--maybe just a little pink or red in the clouds.

Nice shot,

Bob

Hi Jeff, nice feel to this image and nice to see something different. I agree with Bob regarding the clouds, I think a bit of color would be nice. I like those clouds a lot, and the bird flying away makes for a nice composition.

I like the way you saw it Jeff.
Like the clouds.

If it was mine I would place the bird in the lower RHC and little inwards(slightly towards the center) . But I like the ways its presented. Agree with Kerry, the bird flying away makes it even better. Just think the bird also looks too small in the frame..but thats just me...

I like the way the cloud lines are drawing the bird. You could almost imagine the clouds as being trails of other birds that past before. Nice thinking Jeff.
