Minimal cormorant shot

Took this one on a foggy morning and the bird is just a silhouette yet the species is quite recognizable, would like to read your thoughts on the editing.
Nikon Z8 with Nikkor Z 100-400mm. Lightroom new NR and PS for final touches. Early day, dense fog.

I think it's a cool shot, sets the mood and the sense of environment nicely. Might work even more long and narrow, for example 1 to 2 ratio. I like how you left some noise in, and this might be a case where you could use the add noise tool to double down on that moodiness. Maybe lower overall contrast, same reason, but keep the bird relatively dark.
