    Just another of our ubiquitous local gulls, but I liked the way this juvie separated himself from the dark woods beyond, shortly before sunset.

    Nice flight shot Bill. gull stands out well on dark and bit of a mottled bg. Nice light under both wings as well.

    I really like the 3D effect this shot has and lends to a very dramatic effect. Very interesting light as well. Different but I like it!

    Bill, I like the flight angle and flying posture. Well exposed, and the gull pops so well from your darker BG. Maybe a little off the top.

    Good job with the exposure of your Gull against that pretty green BG. Nice underwing detail and eye contact.
