These photos in no way do justice to the beauty of these 1st year herring gulls. My wife was with me and she couldn't get over their beauty.

Thanks for looking.

AWESOME!;) They are all fab, but the last one...a wall hanger!

Excellent shots, Trevor. As Flo said, you have a couple of potential wall hangers there.

I am currently trying to sort out some juveniles, 1st year, and 2nd year Gull shots. Identification is enough for me to pull what little hair I have left out!

Looks like you have a good spot for GIF

Excellent, Trevor

Very nice series and now I know what I'm doing this afternoon - shooting gulls!

[canonloader]

Great set Trevor. And it looks like you got some beautiful lighting for shooting that day.

[dancad]

You had some excellent light for your gull shoot!

[bromm]

Thanks everyone for looking and commenting. I had great lighting thanks to a low, evening Sun.

Third shot, portrait and last image especially nice....its all about the light:D

[bromm]

Thanks Gary! :D

Love the portrait. The young ones really do stand out among the gulls. I saw a bunch of them at Burger King today.
