This is just fantastic; the bright bird against the low key, blurry background works great. Good lines throughout, from the horizon to the angle created by posts and bird.

Great lensebaby shot. It is dark but I still like looking at it as it has an artistic feel to it.

But I actually like that the seagull is out of focus- makes the whole image look like a dreamscape.

Hmmm, interesting effect, I like it. I think if it was me I would just get rid of the cyan abberation on the left of the gull - it distracts me a bit.

Oooh - this worked out very nicely! I love the sorta smug look and great pose you got from the gull.

Oh how charming. I like that tiny glint of light on the pylon behind him. This is dream material if I've ever seen it. :~)

The lighting and colors here are very nice. I so need a lens baby.

Totally dreamy. I think it works. The birds in the background add a lot of depth.

The seagull looks curious. I wonder what he's thinking.

PAW - It looks like a dreamy image (TV's version of a dream anyway). A couple things; the seagull appears to be on a dock, but the plane of the dock doesn't match the sea, I'm assuming because they are the two different pictures. Also, it looks like only the small birds in the middle are in focus, probably an effect of the Lensbaby. Apparently it's important to have the subject centered when using Lensbaby if you want the subject in focus. The bright gull really stands out against the rest of a very dark picture.

This is interesting. I like the colors and dark tones.

cool shot looks like the gull could be on a roof over the water

I love the tone of this shot; rich and smooth. I like how the smooth horizontal lines in the water intersect the sharper diagonal line where the seagull is walking. It gives the shot a very balanced feeling.

Seems you're going for a dark environment with nice light challenge here. Light is very nice and I like all the waves it the background. If the seagull in the front was in focus it would be really great!
