I love the fact that the eye is not visible, it gives more personalilty to the picture. In my opinion,I think that the grace of the wings is more important here. 10
This seagull is in great focus. However, there are two reasons why I cannot give this a good score.
1, the bokeh in the background is actually quite distracting and pulls attention away from the bird.
2, the eye of the seagull is not visible which is very important to me.
If the eye was visible, I might be able to forgive the house. I think this is just one of those examples of a technically very well done photo doing poorly simply based on being captured a second too late and from a slightly bad angle. 4
Stunning capture with perfect clarity of his wings and beak. However, the building as the bokeh is not that appealing and since this is a bokeh challenge this will hurt you.
The light bouncing off the tips of his wings is wonderful, and your capture leaving his face partly conceled Super! Wonderful example of the challange!
