This is a beauty. I thought I commented on this earlier. The bird, sky and reflection of light off the water -- it all combines for an awesome image. Nice job.
This is a new comment series for me, so please bear with me while I find my style!

This is one of my 9s - I like it a lot. Furthermore I think it enriches the DPC collective portfolio. Put simply, I wish we saw more stuff like this. Let me tell you why it pushes all the right buttons for me:
1. I find the POV staggeringly effective and really enjoy the eclectic composition - I suppose this was chosen for you given the position of your subject but nonetheless I enjoy its uneasy balance.
2. The juxtaposition of the gull and people on the platform works so well - not only does it give the image depth but it sets a broader context that conjures a richer spectrum of imaginary (associated) sounds.
3. I really pleased you went for black and white here, I don't think colour would be nearly so effective.
Overall, it makes me want to be there. Enough said.
Eternal image. A real photograph. Emotive. Thought provoking. I hope this does well for you and it is at least given the chance to appear on the front page. Photographically it is a masterpiece.
