A bit of fluff is puffed back from the white feathers near the folded blue wing.  This is the White-winged Swallow, although you may be hard-pressed to identify the bird from a photo taken from this angle.  Sani lagoon, Ecuador.

The view is framed by the curvature of the windshield frame, the window frame, and the coated left arm of the driver's hand on the wheel.

I think this is the Treasure Bay Casino pier.  The entire casino structure was entirely destroyed by storm surge in Hurricane Katrina (2005), in fact the entire waterfront was destroyed and almost all the buildings across the street as well for a very long way of shore line.
