I clicked just in time to catch the bird in flight and only noticed the shadow on my computer screen later on.
Captured at Cathedral Cove, Coromandel.

    This is a spectacular image. The first thing I noticed was the shadow at the bottom of the rock. Then I saw the bird. Just a gorgeous shot. Bravo.

    Holy hoo-hah. These last two shots of yours are really exceptional. I thought this was a pretty good Cathedral Cove pic, then I saw the shadow…

    Probably the most striking shot I’ve seen you post.

    How fantastic. Somehow I’d have expected the shadow to be elsewhere. It’s a great image that really makes you think – but it makes you feel great. Superb. Bravo!

  • A great shot and a wonderful point of view. I think in a ocean’s Cathedral, or a great shep going to discover new worlds…

    What a wonderful piece of landscape and a good choice for the theme day!

  • Julie says:

    You have frozen so many elements into this photograph. It is a treat for the eyes: the rock itself is such an amazing structure, the colour of the water(s), the horizon and then the bird and its shadow. I like this a lot.

  • There’s a lot of things going on in this photo. And I like all of them.
