For the record, the apparent gradient in the sky was achieved entirely by adjusting the black level in the blue/cyan channels in selective color; sky was too bright in original. I was surprised at how much it gradiented out when I did it.
This is a local basketball court that the seagulls are using as a lunch court; they drop the clams from a hundred feet up then swoop down and eat the innards.

From where did all the clamshells come? Playing ball there must have a new sound - crunch. Interesting composition, lines, use WA, symmetry works here, nicely done.
I like this shot. Everything just "clicks" nicely, from the contrast and lighting to the sharpness throughout. The mess on the court makes me wonder just how long it has been since someone played here. Good job!
