The composition is wonderful, the use of silhouette is perfect with this light, and of course, the colour of the sky is perfect. I especially like the changing colour from top to bottom.
Damn you, Christian! I'll have to start an "I hate Christian" club, too. <vbg>
Seriously, a tremendous photo. Truly inspired.
BTW, dawn or dusk?
cheers, frank

Long story short: I live next to a 500+ acre reservoir in Maryland.
Everyday I drive past an old tree only a few hundred feet from my house that
is frequented by cormorants and birds of prey. Today I drove past and saw
this:

The light was perfect, the bird was cooperating so grabbed the camera, long
lens and TCs ran back to an embankment above the water and shot about 50
frames. Of course the one thing I REALLY needed was the cable release which
I left at home. Most pictures suffered from camera shake, but I think this
one turned out pretty good.
Comments always welcomed.
