A bit earlier in the summer I travelled to a symposium on the Greek island of Aegina (I know - what a chore!). We took a ferry from Athens to the island and a number of gulls flew along side us on our journey. This meant that they were virtually stationary relative to us, allowing for some really crisp details to be captured.
Just a crop and tad of saturation, contrast and sharpening applied
i love taking shots of seagulls. i've found that the 70-300mm f/4 - 5.6 IS can be really sharp if you stop it down to f/8 or so, and this picture is more proof of that :)
I love gull shots and this one is lovely and crisp ... I wonder what it would look like if you gave him a little more space to fly into? Nice job lighting under both wings.
