A great shot of the Seagull sunning. A beautiful natural setting with a good diffused background of Bokeh compliment your photography. Your central composition is visually good. Very well photographed with a perfect exposure and incredible details in the feathers and markings. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing. Love this one!

This guy is a little cutie. I wonder what type of gull he is. I only see ringed bills where I live. I like this one's markings and colors match the stone where he is sitting. The blue water in the background is an attractive contrast.

He is so tired from scavaging..lol. the clarity is great. The angle of the shot of this tired gull is great. The clarity is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

You have pictured this young gull so well Nikman, and it is so lovely the way the light is falling on it. I like the bokeh in the background as well, and the bird is standing out from the blue in an excellent way.

Your photo is nice and sharp showing such clear and well defined details, and the exposure is very good.

The format and framing is perfect, and the bird has got a fine placement within the frame. I think this is a lovely and well taken photo, and with a very good DOF.

Beautiful shot! Very well composed, details and colors are perfect! I particularly like how you were able to capture the white at the tip of his beak and the shadow. Thank you for sharing! :) Jill

a very good close up of this seagull resting resting on the pier; I like the angle you took this pic; good framing with sharp focus and good control of exposure for the white.

I really like the compostion here. The rock adds a lot of texture which is pleasing to look at. There is a lot of detail in the wings of the bird. Nice focus. The background is nicely out of focus but I love the light sparkling off the water!

It is a beautiful bird and shot. I love the color of the water. The bird kind of blends in with the wall that is cool as well. There is no blur you can tell your where absolutely spot on with the shot. Thank you for sharing.
