    One of the many things to like about this one is the way the sky tones make a gradient, moving from dark gray to light gray from bottom to top. And the clouds make a subtle horizontal geometry.

    The zone system? COOL! Are you doing dark room printing then??? I just re-set up my dark room, and it is (an expensive!) thrill. Haven't heard that expression in years! And this pic - what??? Love the moon/setting sun BENEATH the flighted bird - how unique, how though provoking, Hector. Lovely work
