    Brown headed gull? Looks sharp and clean with a good bg and some nice light. If you've got some room behind the tail, I'd open it up a bit or extend the canvas

    Sanjeev:
    Superb flight of Black-headed Gull with nice wing position.I like the details in whites,red bill and legs,HA and the way gull pops up against BG.
    Would add some space on left and at the top.

    Regards,
    Satish.

    Nice flight position and good sharpness and details. It is a little too tight IMO.

    Nice wing position, light, and colors. I agree if you have any more room in the frame I would allow a little more space around the bird.

    Great looking shot with the bird being very sharp an exposed well. I have been shooting gulls that look just like this except they do not have nearly as red of feet and beak. They are called Bonaparte's gulls.not sure if they are the same species. Yes to some more room all the way around. Well done

    I like the wing positions, and the BG looks good. To me this would have been better as a horizontal, and I wish for a better HA. Some whites are pushing hot on the flanks, they may be recoverable during raw conversion...worse case you could clone in some adjacent feathers in there.. Very nice details on the wing!
