    On special request from Arthur Morris I post this image.

    The background is the Sea, somehow It doesn't level straight :D:(

    I'm glad Artie requested this image, I like it a lot! Great pose and details. I might try to lighten the shadow of the bill a little.

    This is just wonderful in every respect! I love the eyes, spread feathers and symmetry as already mentioned.

    Hey Andrew, Thanks for posting this and for letting me know. As I thought I would, I love it, esp. those big feet. It seems as if most of the braking is being done by the feet and the tail and very little by those slim wings. If you leveled the eyes the sea would be more "tilted." Can you tell us about the situation???

    Thanks again and later and love, artie
