Poll question: May Photo Contest - LIGHT AND SHADOW - Stage 1, Group 2

There are a total of 30 images produced by participants in DU's Photography Forum which are divided into 3 groups of 10.

Comments on specific images are encouraged in the thread in which they appear, since part of the purpose of the Photography Forum is to learn from others. General comments about the contest and "kicks" should go in the above-linked thread.

I'm a sucker for birds silhouetted by the sunset.

5. I am too

This is an idea I've tried to do many times but this photographer's execution is superior.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.

9. Me, too! "His beak can hold more than his belly-can -- and I don't

see how the hell-he-can" The two "snow" pictures were in second and third place. I miss the snow, but I don't miss shoveling it or driving in it.

11. Shadowed Sara.

A bold concept, excellent framing and composition. And color is the better choice (I checked it out), there isn't enough shading of the light to make BW work. (You work with what you got -- once you got what you're getting.)

A stunning picture.

12. Up and kicking.
