This was taken a month ago over Lake St. Clair from my backyard. A very common bird but they give me practice on flight images. All C&Cs are welcome and appreciated.

Very nice Gull image Jim. I like the wing position and the nice eye contact. The exposure and colors look great too. Good job using these gulls for BIF practice. I used to chase gulls all over the place to practice, even the county dumpWell done

Hi Jim, great angled flight pose, and great that you captured the fully raised wings. Well exposed, and I like the yellows of the eye, beak and feet.
Love the wing position. The WHITEs look a tad gray from here. a
