Dawn light on Steamboat Creek reveals two seagulls sitting on a fishing pier.

    Different colors than the one we are used to see around here, but the "colder" look looks great. And it helps concentrate our attention in the structure.

    Impressive: The silhouettes... the colors... the reflection... the graphics... the fact that was taken with a film camera.
    For me, it's a perfect photo.
