Greetings, birdmonsters, and please accept this picture of a sudden scene which pleased me immensely, although I'll happily admit that I've been fond of this breakwater for years, and certainly I know that breakwaters aren't for everyone...
Taken with the Canon 7D and 100-400 at 400mm. iso1600, 1/320, f5.6
Very nice Jack.When I did a browser scroll , cropping out the bottom part of the breakwater to the snow line ,I felt you would have a much stronger image while still retaining the vision you had for this shot.

Oh hello Gail! Your suggestion is a very good one. I've been playing with it, and I don't disagree! But also I am torn: although the breakwater's upper textures are more appealing than the lower textures, I am still quite fond of breakwater's bottom, with its scuffs and cracks. This is one of those tiny-birded dual-subject images to which I am hopelessly addicted! For better and worse! Let me ruminate some. Your point is well-taken and I thank you!
Thank you for your input, Jonathan! You are quite right about the blue cast. Some think me a _____ for never bothering to fix those unless they're REALLY out-of-wack, etc.
