The City Fishing Pier on Anna Maria Island, noontime, Florida bright sunshine, white bird. The only thing that save this image from the trash bin was that the bird was close to the water. The surface of the water acted like a big reflector illuminating what normally would be dark shadows. Comments and critique welcomed and appreciated. Thank you for viewing.

Post processed in Lightroom CC and Photoshop CC, removed a color cast from the reflected water on the white of the bird, worked on the whites with a curve and adjustment brush in Lightroom to even the exposure, noise reduction to the background to soften the appearance, darkened the luminance of the background
