Your composition is simple and elegant at the same time. Good color (not too bright, or execessive, etc).

Nice shot of the bird, but candid?

nature never expects you to take a picture, I think this is a cop out.

I'm afraid I don't get the title in the first place... but I also don't see the relevance to this challenge. Any picture of a seagull is surely going to be "candid" given that seagulls aren't really capable of posing. In a different challenge I would have rated this better.

I like the concept but not the composition. To meet it does not meet the challenge this week, sorry. 5 an other week. 3 this week.

Fantastic shot, can’t fault the photography. But I do think the challenge element is a little weak. But, this is a damn good picture (8)

A straighter horizon, use of the rule of thirds and tighter cropping could have saved this photo.

This photo is 'candid' because I can see that it was not setup and not planned. The 'candid' element of the photo is, in my opinion, weak, because of the subject. I think that the people shots are a bit stronger on the subject because it's easier to show a strong candid moment and create a better tie into the challenge :) - jmsetzler
