Winging It

I found this low flying gull on a local lake. I liked the great view of both the underside and top of the wings. I also liked the fact that the left wing is skimming the water. Comments and critiques welcome.

Canon 7D Mark II
Canon 200-400 f4 L IS
f7.1
1/1600s
ISO 400
Focal Length 560mm (Teleconverter engaged)

That is close ! The reflection of the details on the wingtip are fantastic. I also like the sideways glance - as if the gull is checking out the photographer :wink:

The color and sharpness is very good. love the eye attention. All I see of the Mark II has been great. Can't wait to get one.
