Low Tide*

Palo Alto Baylands, California

I thought I'd be different and submit a landscape with shallow DOF. If you don't think this fits the theme, please let me know, and I'll replace it with a close-up flower shot.

Just right. I'm an avid bird photographer and your photo is one I'd really be proud to have made.

Here's the cropped version. --Garrett

Thanks for the comments. I originally didn't crop it because I wanted it as tall as possible to show the blurriness in the distance. However, I see that it could benefit from just cropping out part of the righthand side. I'll try that tonight. --Garrett

No... don't change the camouflage; but, I'd crop it so the bird isn't so centered. Lovely...

The pink color is wonderful Garrett, it makes the picture. One small suggestion would be to place the bird so that the background doesn't hide it so much, like in front of the water. Not so easy to do in real life I know. :-)
