There was a good day of warbler fall out In April last year at Fort Desoto. I'd been chasing the little itchy twitchies when a Wood Stork came in. I was sitting down taking a break and he just moved closer and closer. The final shot was a closeup of his head.......but not all of it as he was so close. I thought the pattern on the head was so interesting that I cropped it down to make an abstract sort of image. Given that my mother (who was a professional artist) always said that I had about as much creativity as a box of rocks.....what do you think of this one?

This is an impressive abstract image. I like more of a rectangular frame as opposed to square, but that is my preference. This one however with the right framing work will look very nice on a wall. Congratulations!
What incredible textures, it looks almost like those edges they build with rocks and cement around the beach!
I played around with other crop choices and ended up with the one presented. Great thinking!
The flash looks like the flash icon in the white balance setting :)
Out of the box seems right.....great eye to just see this within your original image. I like the square crop and also think it would look great framed on a wall.
Oh, I love this image! The detail is incredible and that eye is perfectly placed and makes the picture. It almost looks like some kind of bizarre landscape.
