I like it a lot Ove. I've never tried long shutter speed so will have to play with it ;)

Originality is your middle name, Ove ;)! It's a fascinating image, the BHG sharp except for wings and tail, but sharp against... what? At first sight it looked like the bird was surfing, with a great wave about to break over it. But those geometric shapes must be windows.. or are they? Anyway, nice work!
