I feel like I know that bird so well, now that I've picked him out of the leaves. I'll call him Inky.

another very satisfying transformation of photography into inkwork

another good use of blank sky, this time black instead of white. it gives a sense of place, scale, mood.

also, I love the way the street painting is the same brightness as the lights on the cars. it is a disorienting effect that makes this seem like black ink scratched away instead of a photo.

Looks like some diverse weather going on here, I'm drawn to the diffused sun then the super sharp trees on the left.

Favorite. Be back to edit with a comment later.

That huge sun tilting a heavy cloud and burning a hole through your photograph. Your image, bold and powerful, made me stop. I imagine this irresistible scene was taken through an open car window. It's all about the chase, so we click and continue on our journey. Well done!

You need to work on your titles ;-)

haha, taking picture because of being bored is no bad idea
And there actually is a movie called "My Left Foot: The Story of Christy Brown"

Good morning, Karen. This image has obviously been taken only a short time ago, and I feel that this is almost a conversation. Here's what I like about it. The fence that naturally disappears into the background at the left, waving off a persnickety need for contrast. The lower clouds that catch sunlight on their backs and only present their coyly shadowed faces. The big sun with its indistinct rim. And the huge, dark cloud that sails along overhead and complicates the mood with drama, though I imagine it's resolved in Act II. Fine and rewarding. Enjoy the day.

it's always a decision how much sky to show, particularly when the sky is blown out. I think you made the right call.

Dang! I totally missed it. The trunk at the bottom ... DUH!!! This is underrated and should have made the Top Five at least. Very nice work.
