Nice top side view of this gull William. I like the pose and the nice yellow eye. Exposure looks good but I do see a bit of noise in the darks. Sure wish he had some better feather confirmation too but not much you can do about that. Well done.
Come join me for a Custom Raptor Workshop starting this November 2019- January 2020.
P.M. me to inquire on dates, pricing and availabilities. Thank You. www.davidsalemphotography.com
Simply a wonderful head and wing position! DOF captures excellent eye sharpness and feather details. Just a few whites lack detail, but overall a fine image!
Superb angle....classic for a birdwatchers photographic handbook. Noise has crept in and perhaps a less tight crop and going easy on the sharpening will reveal an image with better IQ.
I carried one 3 miles to a vet once... it survived:) these are huge gulls!
I'd go for a looser crop too mate!
Agree about noise and some lacking whites. Not sure what your RAW exposure was.
Great topside view, classic in fact!
Very nicely done and TFS!
