    Default Juvi Ring-billed Gull

    Hi folks!
    I was wondering what you all thought of this. This is about a 75% crop (25% left).

    Rebel Xt | 75-300 @ 300 | 1/1250 | f/9 | ISO 1600

    Happy shooting and God Bless,
    Paul

    I don't mind cutting wings sometimes, but this one includes the tip, so I'm afraid it doesn't work for me. Let's
    see what the others have to say :)

    The image is nice a sharp Paul but I agree with Fabs, this crop is just not working for me.

    Thanks guys, I really appreciate the input! This was the top right corner of the frame in the original, so I tried this crop to see if it worked. I don't think it did.;) :D

    This is fairly sharp and the exposure is good, but even if you had frame it properly, the near-wing position as here would not have been pleasing. Once the bird is in the zone, you need to two or three images and hope for a good wing position: wings full up or wings full down.
