Comment from Dick Lee Shia
A cute & candid capture!!
An interesting initial impact.
Visually soothing with those playful bokeh effects.
What do you mean by busily resting...?
Centrally framed with great interplay between lights and shades casting soft highlights & faint shadows.
Controlled illumination with no pronounced blown out whites.
Sharply focused.
Fine features & varied textures.
Harmonious color scheme.
Nice perspective & narrow DOF.
Thanks for sharing...

What a cute little fella!:) This is a nice shot of the sunbathing bird.! You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good luck!

Comment from Monica Morrell
This is an excellent image of the young seagull, He is almost camouflaged against the rock.
Amazing detail and intricate design in the seagulls feathers and the rock formation.
Sparkled highlights from the water adds nicely to the over all effect.
Very well captured. best of luck in the contest.

Nice focus and light on the seagull, but the tiny and bright spots on the water distracts and pull my eyes to then
nice center composition and presentation

What a fantastic view of this seagull with beautiful detail and a wonderful bokeh in the water. An excellent entry for the contest. The color, light and pretty shimmer all add beauty to this shot. I think this will do very well in the competition. Best wishes and thanks for sharing this one!

Nik,
A beautiful picture of this juvenile Herring Gull on the Eisenhower pier in Bangor, Co. Down up there in the "Wee North" the sunshine highlighting it's mottled juvenile plumage while dancing off the sea in the background. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

An elegant photograph. The composition is excellent and the back light gives you great colors and some nice bokeh on the water. I like the detail in the plumage and beak.

Nice shot here Nikman. The focus is sharp and the colors are well done especially on the wings. I like the bokah effect in the background as it adds a very nice element to the scene. Well done my friend ~ Steve
