Creative License In Flying Bird Photography Practice

My photography mentor and I are going on a bird photography trip to AZ in April so it's time to improve my inflight captures. Seagulls are abundant and great practice models! I had to tweak it in Analog EFEX. Which do you prefer?
Thanks for your visits, comments, suggestions, favs

Great seagull action shot! Shooting wildlife on the move is such a challenge for me. I think I'll take your lead and practice because in the moment, you have to react quickly & know your camera.

A wonderful composition to start with... love the diagonal repeating lines, the bird flying into the shot. Very nice processing on this one... I like this one!
