Not the best weather at the moment and also my Wife's birthday, so picture taking opportunities were very limited. This is the best of a bad bunch, but I do like the ideas. It was taken on a very overcast and wet morning, but the seabird stuck around for a while to add some subject matter to the piece.

Not expecting much from it.

Interesting vertical perspective, not sure what is supposed to be in focus though. Since the sky is burned out and detail of the bird is lost, I might try a shallower DOF with sharp focus on the rocks.
