Gull and Gull

I shot some more gulls today but i decided to move away for one day from RAW shooting and instead i set my D90 up for some Jpeg shooting, i selected the straight forward standard setting and set up the shadow/highlight recovery tool called ADR.
I put the Jpegs through LR and just added a bit of color and sharpening, apart from that these are sooc Jpegs.

Way do you think?

Thank you so much, i wasn't sure how they would turn out as i have never really rated Jpeg for shooting, and have shot in RAW for about the last two years and 2000 pictures.

I like 1 better -- near full-frame and a plausible natural setting. A catchlight in the eye would have helped, though.

In #2 the bird is looking down (not ideal) and there is a shadow over the eye area of the bird which probably could have been eliminated by waiting for a slight change of angle of the bird's head.

They were both just grab shots really i was just messing about testing the Jpeg engine in the camera instead of the normal Raw i tend to use.

Great set.
