My apologies to all bird lovers, but this shot does not actually feature any birds...
I must admit that I didn't notice this pic on my first pass through on Sunday last...
When i look at it now it looks pretty damn good to me...
The CPL did a good job on the surrounding clouds...

No - that's the tail of the kite... I haven't added anything to the image...
Now I look at it on my work LCD monitor - the picture doesn't look all that great after all...

Leek, this would look pretty cool if the clouds were desaturated but leave the kite in colour.
The clouds look quite ominous to threaten the fragile kite and produce a very in depth pic

Leek,
Or should I call you Benjamin
Did you get ya key back.
Mic.
Nice, but I would have liked a bright red kite a bit closer in with a polarized deep deep flip frog sky behind it though.

I've come back to this a couple of times and finally feel ready to comment. The image as it stands doesn't grab me because the red kite fills too little of the frame. I think it's good conceptually, but needs tighter cropping on the top and the RHS
