C&C appreciated

It's a great shot. If I was going to be picky, I'd say the pic would benefit from a bit of 'breathing space' around the bird (so the feet and tail aren't on the very edge of the frame), and if you'd taken half a step to the left, the post wouldn't be coming out of the gull's head. Yes, I know. Picky... ;)

3 Times the work!

Hi Guys. Long time admirer of the photo threads on this forum.
Feeling brave tonight to add my 1st contribution.
Inspired by a recent Valdore shot I saw & just had to figure out how to do it.
Not sure if my technique is The Way, but It worked for me.

That looks awesome. Did you use photoshop for the post processing?

Took this today holding an old 50mm f1.8 reversed over the kit lens on my D40.
(Plug - check out the poor mans macro thread and post some of your improvised macro shots!)

Wow! Absolutely superb photo! Definitely not a run-of-the-mill swan shot. The backlit wings are just perfect!

Fantastic capture, sonor... Simply amazing. :)

This is great, a classic. Straight from a fairytale story.

excellent shots LCK and Sonor ;)

Thanks Phrasikleia, LittleCanonKid, oblomow & wheelhot.

The sun was going down and the swan was friendly - hanging around at the edge of the lake right next to me - so I got myself in position and waited to see if it would do anything interesting...then fired of a quick burst when it stood up.

Awesome, great job btw. How fast was your shutter speed and what's the maximum burst ur camera have?

JayRob, that's a beautiful moon shot, how did you get it?

Went out today for a quick photo tour of one of my favorite places on my Island and ended up filling my 4 Gb card :D

Here's a few of my favorites from today. I'll have more to come after I finish going through all of them.
Links for a couple more.

Welcome to the daily thread, Atomicfission92. Just keep in mind that Photo of the Day means just that: photo...singular! (one per day) :)
