I am not sure this is the right forum for this image, so please move it if it doesn't qualify. I took this image in Florida about 3 weeks ago while practicing shooting flying birds. I thought it was very good of the gull, by the way I only think it is a Ring-billed Gull, anyway the background in the original image was a bright blue sky, no clouds. I selected the bird from the original image and moved it to a background of the Atlantic Ocean. It seems to me that it improverd the overall quality of the image and I wonder what others think? I will include the shooting data for the image of the bird. Obviously, I did quite a bit of work in PS. I would appreciate your opinions as to the final product.
