I'm not sure where this belongs, but I'm glad I found it. I like the composition and the fact that you were able to catch the ibis against the light background. Ordinarily, I'd wish for a bit more detail in the shadows, but this image is so dramatic that it fits alright without the detail. Great range of tones in the clouds.

Hi Peter, very nice mood and a very special image! Compositionwise I might be inclined to crop either from the bottom (just above the two bright spots), or from the right to reduce the empty black area. My preference is for the last, because I really like those structures in the clouds.

Lovely drama and tonal range as per usual, Peter...the flock was in the perfect spot here...
Could work well in OOTB too - want me to copy it there as well?

Peter - well seen and nice that you had the presence of mind to capture it. Flock placement and tonal range make the image for me.
TFS,

I agree with Morkel in his first sentence, but this is not OOTB as that forum's description is related to digital manipulation over and above normal processing. 
This is also the correct forum Peter. The birds are an accent in this dramatic image and not the center of interest.

Bit late to this one but great creative image with typical uniqueness you strive for. Great BW processing.
