Beautiful, this feels almost like a painting. Lovely soft light, colors and composition. Funny how the gull seems so integrated within the trio.

Beautiful image - mother and cub - soft light - reflections - interaction.

"gull imparts calmness" - now that really is a paradox!

Well done!

Stuart,

Nothing I can say other than echo the above comments, the "curious" seagull adds greatly to the image.

[Marc Mol]

Beautiful Stuart, love the interaction between all 3, great light and detail here.

I have to agree with all, this is a wonderful image, the light, the interaction between mother and cub, the gull and the claws showing all put this image over the top for me.
