    Hi Karl, cracking light, perfect timing, like the trailing water. Nice work, well done.

    Can you get one head on next time, LOL.

    Good one, Karl. A different look at a ubiquitous gull. Lovely water color a fabulous pose and timing (a bit more of the eye would have put it over the top). Can you tweak just a bit more detail out of his left wing and mantle?

    I love it when they behave like this, plunging again and again to fetch whatever they can find in the water. Nice water colour and splash. I'd probably crop to just about your signature to reduce the less than ideal thick part of the reflection at left (IMO).

    Lovely unique pose, Karl. I'm really liking this one a lot. Water color is great and I like the dripping water. Glad that a bit of an eye is visible.
