All great photos. I especially like the photos of the black bird for the shallow depth of field (and rain?) and the seagull for the wings. I don’t normally think of seagulls as beautiful, but this one is.

I think seagulls are beautiful when they are flying. It’s just hard to capture them.

Here is my quick take on this; I may try to improve it, but if I do not just publish it now, well, I will lose interest, so here goes: https://snailsearch.wordpress.com/2017/06/01/practicing-black-and-white/

Thanks Andy 😀 Seagulls are fun to chase with the camera, although very few photos turn out well. 😀

I like your selective colour shot with the kites, Cee. The black and white cloudy sky just makes this shot with the contrast. And the seagull is a great shot, too. The way the individual feathers show up!

I got lucky with the seagull photo. 😀 Thanks.

Luck is often part of it, at least with moving objects (or rather, animals). And often with light, too. Being at the right place at the right time! (and having your camera ready)

I love the seagull and the kites. The only thing that will be flying away today is me as I am off to Melbourne for the weekend but I have linked Naomi’s bird on a rock photo. Mine will probably feature planes 🙂

Love the gull, too! The tension of between it’s dangling feet and the fluttering feathers is palpable. Another great shot, Cee! Here’s my contribution…
