Quite a nice nature shot presented here. Your composition and subjects are good. I particularly like the contrast between the expressions of the seagull and the cormorants(?). Well done!

Or even still... Birds of a Feather. Nice composition on this. Depth of field plays out nicely and the birds "surveying" their surrounds allows for all sorts of imaginative stories to be told. The one on the right is particularly charismatic.

A very lovely capture - you really got the perfect angle and position to let these 4 guys look like a family
good focus, genuine contrast and lighting, I think your image is nicely framed and well composed - a harmonious wild life picture, thanks for sharing

What are they looking for? The seagull looks as if he just wants them to leave. A fun image with a pleasing composition and a nice neutral color palette. Focus might be just a little soft but good job anyway.

Comment from Bruce Heming
The image I am looking at shows the seagulls head to be out of focus. Perhaps because the wing of this bird is in better focus the bird had moved his head causing the out of focus look. The two birds framing the Seagull seem to be in better focus.

I love how this seagull is flanked by these different friends. Look like they are on the look out, lol,,nice colours ,good lighting, nice focus on just the seagull and his 3 friends, looks like the seagull is quite content to be in the sun

Great photo. Colors, exposure, tone and lighting are amazing. As a viewer, I see the birds hanging around and wondering why is this bird chilling. We want to have fun and he's a party pooper.
