An island off the coast of NC that my girlfriend's family used to own and is now inhabited by various birds. The buildings in the distance are of Portsmouth Island, which now has a population of zero.

    Great capture, well done.

    The Gull is a bit out of place there.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Nice shot, is it an actual panorama? and if so how many images is it built up from ? plus I love the one pelican standing on the plank in the middle, shame you lose some of his/her detail in the background
    May I take your picture?

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
