Very nice atmosphere and very good composition! The bird's shadow could do with a little more tweaking, maybe fade it slightly with a layer mask as the shadow progresses. But it's a very good first entry, and welcome to the site

Edit: Also, if you use your own photos, you need to show the unedited form in your step by step guide. Add a guide by going to My Stuff -> My Contest Entries and adding a guide

Good luck

Thanks Ponti for your comments and suggestions.
