 DPCya should enjoy this busy, blurry photo.

I have no expectations for this whatsoever.

BTW - no filters. Just color enhancement, dodge, and burn, and other little things.

You made the birds seem at one with their environment, which of course these excellent seabirds are. Nice light on the foreground water.

What I like best here is how the birds and water merge as one. Very symbiotic.

This is very nice. I like the impressionistic work. If the top were cropped to show just the birds, just a tad less of sky or only the birds and rocks it would be better still for me. 8

Nice shot. I find the red bits on the rocks a little distracting.

I cannot tell you what it is, but something just doesn't quite work.
