About the Image(s)
Taken on Cockatoo Island in Sydney Harbour.
Hundreds of gulls were nesting in an abandoned dock and flying around like crazy.
It was pretty tricky to just get one in some sort of focus, with a fast enough shutter.

Thought of cropping closer, but I quite like the space around it.

You definitely captured one in sharp focus, well done. Nit picking, I wish his wings were in a more spread out form. Other than that, exposure is spot on and I also like the space. Posted: 09/18/2023 11:20:52
Your focus and shutter speed were spot on, capturing the bird in flight. However I agree with Brad that it would be better if its wings wherefore spread out. Posted: 09/20/2023 09:59:22
Nicely captured. The bird seems to hang in the sky. Needs more around it, whatever, to make this an interesting image. Posted: 09/27/2023 13:46:39
