Taken early this year ,an experimental session with wide angle and remote release . One hand feeds the gulls the other presses the button .Easy really but my hand eye coordination was/is pants and took hundreds of images to get one I liked .Plus using the gravel as a tripod is not recommended .The lens and camera are fine now they've dried out.LOL

Very arty mark, i like this when i first saw your other one, nice image ,
Looks like you've got a good set-up here and I can just imagine how hard it is to get everything just right. I love the low, wide angled perspective. A couple of things that would improve it IMHO is the nearest bird being a little sharper and perhaps some seperation between the two gulls.
Guess its not easy to ensure the focus is correct when using a remote this way... super concept and a good way to portray the gulls in a different aspect...
