Some gulls up close and personal

Not many BIF around so had to settle for what was available at the local marina - gulls. A little bread and they are more than willing to oblige with some low passes. Taken late afternoon/not quite golden hour. The first three are the same gull in a 3-image sequence. The fourth image is interesting because of the reflection of the water on the underside of the gull.

Taken with Olympus EM-1 MKII and 40-150mm f/2.8 zoom using pro-capture setting.

Constructive C&C welcome.

Gary

Those are all outstanding shots! Of a seagull...who would'a thought? I've never seen anything beautiful about a seagull before. You have opened my eyes. Thank you.

Plus there’s so many, give you many chance of good shot and opportunities to practice your BIF wich in my book is THE difficult shot have yet to master, getting better but still lagging way behind my coach.

What a great series. I tried to pick a favorite but they are all so good. My bride likes the last one and I never argue with her.
