    I was looking for a good backdrop for this gull. Not sure the scale of this one works, but I kinda liked the drama...

    Hi Mitch....I like the drama but i do think the gull(?) needs to be just a bit smaller

    Mitch, I might evict the shadows of the palms in the water as they imply the light is coming from a different direction than the shadow on the bird. I agree maybe a little smaller for the gull. Love the scene and the drama and the flip!

    This is certainly dramatic. Beautiful light in the sky and on the bird. I've never seen a Gull fluffed up like that--a different look.

    I love it Mitch! The sky is gorgeous and I've never seen a gull that looked like that either. Maybe make the gull a tad smaller to give the upper wing a little more space between the edge but I don't think it looks out of proportion.

    Mitch, I like them both. They're both very dramatic in different ways. Great work

    Mitch...to me the light on the gull looks too contrasty and does not match the overall light in the scene. I like them both but i think i prefer the first post for the drama and the way the clouds mimick the wings
