    I really like the sky, the water, and the shape of the bird. With the colors of the sky and bird being so similar, I darkened the bird with a Curves layer and added some brown from the water to separate it from the background and emphasize its shape.

    Mitch, the sky is really spectacular! I also like Dennis's repost... darkened bird creates a nice contrast with the bg.

    While I like the OP, the re-post by Dennis, while very subtle, adds quite a dramatic effect. Both are excellent interpretations.

    I like how the water mimics the patterns in the sky. The rp takes this up a notch IMHO.

    TFS,

    You sure do know how to photograph and process dawns and sunsets. For me, the Tern is distracting. Glorious sky and water--shapes, textures, colors, light. Wow.
