    I like the dark BG, fanned tail, light and composition. Nice image John.

    Hi John,
    I like the inclusion of so much BG given it's intriguing nature. And the bird pops very nicely against it. Nice angle of the bird as it comes toward us. Well done.

    The dark dramatic sky does add a lot here. Nice light on the gull too. I like the flared tail. I do wish the top wing was "thicker", like the lower one.

    I have to echo daniel's comments exactly!
    Very nice IQ and exposure on the whites,
    Gail
