Who Says Seagulls Aren't Beautiful?

This seems to be the week for practicing catching birds in flight and seagulls are in abundance to practice with! You can see the fog that was still there in the background. I know the rule is to crop so the bird has plenty of room to fly into but I liked the curve of the rocks softened by the fog in the background so chose to break the rule.
Thanks as always for all your visits, comments, suggestions, favs, friendship. I know how much time it takes and am very appreciative.
Very pretty, loving the background too Jane, far more interesting than just blue sky.

I agree about the background. For me it depends on the quality of the focus on the specifics of the feathers. Rules are meant to be broken! :)

Rules are just suggestions in photography. The gull certainly looks good against the misty rock.
