nice triptych

Lovely, reminds me of Capitola, CA where I visited frequently for years. The gulls stole my lunch though ...

voila! The comments are back on...(the gulls told me if you didn't put on the comments, they'd fly away...) You go from real closeup, to partial closeup, to a midway shot (with huge background): I like the sequence. But more importantly, real clarity, wonderful light and shadow, as well as pov's. The shadow in the first two is on the fronts of their bodies, and in sharp contrast with the 'back' light. In the 3d, the shadow's all in front, with light from the side...Then the povs: classic 1 is a classic bird-pov, with water behind him; a Harry shot in 2, with that wonderful gravel and all its intense texture, and the deep dark shadow cast by the gull. (Hope he sees this, this is right up his alley!) And 3 is a noble shot, with the gull on a beautiful ledge, backed up by a huge expanse of water and then rolling green hills...3 beautiful shots, Helle; and your framing picks up a hue found in all three shot---fine job of presentation to top it all off.

Ah, good! At last I can say how much I like all these .Interesting that the Black-headed Gull is ringed!

Marvelous captures my friend... Fantastic birds also !!!

Very nice trio of gull shots, Helle. I like the variety of locations and poses.

Superb captures Helle. God bless.

Hey, No. 2 is my kind of shot, what with the texture, lighting effects and long shadow. Cool montage of the various gulls, Helle, trying not to look too gullible.
