I took this photo of a white sea bird in the dark waters of the Santa Barbara harbor a few months ago. My guy and I watched this bird for almost an hour as he plucked small fish from the false safety of the shallow, rocky ledge. Occasionally, a tourist would toss a penny into the ocean water, but the bird was unruffled- his focus was on the swimming dinner before him.
I love the strong contrast of light and dark in this image, but more than that, I love the stillness and calm we experienced while bird-watching in the midst of the crowded Southern California pier.
