Bird taking flight...if you can find it.

Waited for the clouds to get in position, bumped up the grain, contrast etc in PS and then noticed the bird, barely. Can't really tell its a bird though from the angle. Then some decided to take a break on the light, so grabbed a couple shots. Maybe it should be filed under nature??

I like the first image. It draws you in. The second one is dark on the left hand side of the image. The pole gets lost in the blackness as you move down the picture. I think maybe a little more seperation of the pole from the back ground would help. Just my opinion.

Thanks Rob. Yeah that pole did disappear. I did some vignetting on it and its visible (lightly) in the original but for some reason lost it in the post. Also lost some of the contrast.
