Death on the sand

I gave this one a belt of contrast before converting to B&W thanks to the good advice I received yesterday.

Wow, this is a really touching and sad capture. I love the contrast between the black and white feathers. Wonderful work.

Unfortunate for the bird, as a subject it provides a good shot.

It's a sad commentary done with finesse. And I must say I'm really loving how you're framing your images.

@amy: I am happy with the way the frames work with the images too Amy. I think the white frame against the dark background improves them. Inspiration? Ian Bramham
