One last grey day gull...

EOS R6 RF 100-500 @300 f7.1 1/1000 ISO 1600 HH, Manual EXP, cropped for better composition

I like the idea, and it is nice high key processing for me but the muddled head turn with the partial eye ruins it....

Hi David ... besides the not ideal head angle I quite like the image .
This would make a very nice high image .... but needs way more light , less contrast and leaving mainly faint blacks .
My take .

Thanks gents for the always valued help. It was dismal weather with very low diffuse light. The entire sky was almost blown completely trying to get the whites (on bird) close with camera in hand. Next time with better light... Thanks again.
