Herring Gull in Flight

Gallery: AvianPosted October 8, 201584 views6 comments

I don't recall whether this is the same bird as the last post or not, though it was just a bit earlier in the morning. This was just a little glide to change position on the beach.

7Dii, 500mm f4 ISL + 1.4TC, hand held, f/7.1, 1/4000, iso 640, manual exposure, pattern metering. Processed in LR5 & CS6. I added a touch of canvas on the right again. Cropped to 13.1MP. Taken at 8:39 am on June 11th.

I appreciate your comments on the last Herrign Gull post and look forward to your input on this image.

Thanks,

Well, from the vantage point I would say it's a different one, otherwise you must have run quite fast to get this angle.. Great shot as always Dennis ! Cheers, Hans
