I just love the way the seagull is so much bigger than the boat, and it takes up so much of the photograph... great work

Gawd! Utterly excellent photo. The thing that strikes me most is the bird's eye and beak. Great sharpness and color there.

A good basket of chips sounds nice. A Stella sounds SUPERB (too bad I've given up drinking).

you always seem to impress me with your submissions. always doing something different ... i think you'd be an interesting person to know. (that's a good thing)
this is fun and candid. even though i hate those birds

Excellent capture.
A chip can make a seagull a sitting duck.
A few Stellas can do the same for a gayboi

Luring subjects in with food...What's next? Will you be telling children you have candy in your pockets?

I love the way you captured the eye...It almost looks menacing...A throwback to birds dinosaur heritage. The blur of the feet and wings gives a great sense of motion.

Thanks for posting more of the technical specs of the shot too...Helps those us of less talented get a glimspe into your head.

Great capture, sweetie... I love the blur of the wing that helps create the motion of the photo... yet, the sharpness and detail of the head is great...

Nice timing...

Granted, birds freak me out a bit.

Eek!

And I am still waiting for something yummy for my desktop!

Goddamit, thats one hell of an eye you got there, kinda surreal in it's sharpness surrounded by the rest of it's blurred body
