J.L.S.
by W R Somsky

This was a serendipity shot.
I was trying to get a nice, in-focus picure of the gull, but it just didn't happen.
When I got home though, I started playing w/ the colors,
and w/ some shifting, I got this, which I rather liked.
Here's a thumbnail of the original to see what the colors were originally like:

Perfect! Just great what you've done with this; I immediately thought of the book, just from the thumbnail. Wonderful watercolor / blur effect. Now that's what you call making lemonade out of a lemon -- I'm learning not to throw some of those 'not so great' shots out as well; this encourages me.
