Seagull Flight

[Cheryl Arena Molennor]

Went out the other day and not near as good a day as last weeks great day. I decided to shoot what was made available to me and that happened to be the gulls before I found the horned grebes again. I thought it would be good to go for some flight shots. I really like the sof light and colors of this. I like the wing position and head angle but not sure about the one foot thing. I guess he had 2 feet ... not sure. Cropped off about 20% but had to add a little canvas to bottom and right side

Sweet shot here Cheryl. The pastel clouds in the background add a lot to this image. Exposure looks good and like the "gull" hanging pose here.
