I really like the idea and the hazy colour but overall I think the photo is too busy. There's too many things I don't know where to start looking.
I like the effect. I think the shot would have been stronger w/o the seagulls on the left. The fisherman seems to be the subject and the birds take your attention away from him. It seems strange for me to say this about birds though.

I've had this pic on file for some time now... just couldn't delete it for whatever reason. Just though I would play around with it in post processing for something different. Appreciate your input on the pic.
The shot was just there... not much time to react or to compose. Probably the reason for the lack of a "main" subject. Just captured what was within my view for those few fleeting moments.
Ha! It is strange for you not to like a pic with this many bif's in the frame!!
As always respect your opinion as well as your input.

I really like this shot..has a journalistic feel to it...as far as all the action...I like that too. Rather than capturing a subject you captured a scene.

I like it. It looks more interesting than a grey B&W. I like the composition and the reflections.

Did you shoot any of those Egrets ?

I'm glad you enjoyed... I just couldn't delete the shot. Something inside me said it was a "keeper". Thanks for stoppin' by and for your kind words.
