    Jonathan, good angled flying posture, and I like the underwing detail. Looks like he's lost a foot - but they seem to adapt pretty well.

    Hi Jonathan,

    Agree with Stuart re underwing detail. Maybe just a little centralised in the frame? A little off the top and left?

    regards.

    Sharp, well exposed. Nice tail flare. You could try to lighten the darker underwing a bit (which I also wish was open higher), and I would have placed the gull further left of the frame. Too bad about the lost foot!
