It was a stunning sunrise at Anhinga Trail this morning
in Florida's Everglades National Park.
Of course this vulture flew off just before the sun rose behind his perch
ruining my ultimate silhouette......rats!

Hi Michael, I like the color of the sky and the slight gradation. I find the layered effect of the foreground, mid and distant vegetation to be pleasing. The silhouette appears to have sharp edges and I like the placement of the bird in frame. Nicely done and thanks for sharing.

.. Michael just stick around there are plenty of them around :)

I like the pose and feel, most of the ones I've seen have very little of the perch, like this look also !!!

This one looks just fine to me. Love the color, the COMP, the pose and the SH. And the lower 1/3 of the frame as well.

Very nice as presented, love the warm light, sharp silhouette and habitat included. See you on Friday.
