1. seagull having fun...

Posted by ManuelaR (Hainburg (Frankfurt/Main), Germany) on 7 January 2008 in Animal & Insect.

-- captured in Hainburg/Main, Germany --

This little fellow was having such fun with just a small little piece of wood!
Flying high, dropping it in the water, diving & catching it, and start all over again.
It was just wonderful to watch... hope you enjoy it too ;)

Thanks for your comments!

WOW. This must be one of the most elegant and graceful images of seagulls I’ve come across. Really beautifully captured, Manuela. I love the tones here, and the angle, with those ripples, is absolutely superb.

Looks as if he was practising fishing :). The picture is wonderful, especially the vertical format combined with a horizontal, gracious subject.

Nice catch!!, the orange little feet i like. How about cropping it about 25% from the upper side? Or is that too conveniant? The direction of the "blikwinkel" of the seagull will be more in focus. On the other hand : the sky is the limit and now it can fly away nice high!!
