Flying

I captured this seagull flying today on the beach just in front of our house. At first I was annoyed I missed his/her head but then decided I kind of liked it! It's much better viewed large.

You are right...the wings are so beautiful. It looks almost too beautiful to be a seagull! Lovely composition and color!!

[Maggiemae]

This bird has great colour and long legs dangling out! Its really neat!

Love the wings spread out like that with the light behind. Great composition too. Wonderful shot.

[Jacki]

I've never seen a blue seagull. Did you add the color in processing? I've only ever seen them white with gray...beautiful capture!

[KWind]

@jav0930 I hit some random preset adjustment and this was the result. The bird did have a bit of a blue hue to it to start but the processing enhanced it.

[Phil]

Beautiful, beautiful capture of those wings. Marvellous

[Corinne]

like your choice of framing and the missing head doesn't disturb me, i was more focused on the blue color of the wings !

[Amrita]

Wonderful capture and processing!

[Osia Strasner]

Love this shot....and, the color on those wings is amazing! I am glad you were not able to get the head....it just makes the wings more abstract and emphasizes the flight....well done....and, congrats on PP and Trending!

[Arefin]

[Issi Bannerman]
