A few Ring-billed Gulls have migrated south to my area for the winter. There was still some fall foliage left last weekend so I tried to get some images with this as the backdrop.
Maybe a little busy, but something different anyway.
So crisp is your gull. If you have photoshop you should be able to make an easy selection and invert, then apply less contrast, clarity to smooth the background I think some even use noise reduction.
I was trying to love the BKGR in the original post but the BOKEH is overwhelming. It looked as if 100 ghosts were peeking at the bird. The repost is better. The gull itself is killer-good.
