Graceful gulls
This is a photograph of Greater Black-back gulls flying above a snow covered dune. There gulls are ferocious mean carnivores and will peck out the eye of seal pups, attack birds nests for eggs and chicks and go after some mammals such as rabbits. If one had this "label" in mind when photographing these birds it would surely influence the type of image produced. So, when I saw this image below, I threw out those labels and produced this image.

Great picture - I love the almost painterly feel to this; very minimal, and abstract. Nice flowing movement of the gulls themselves, and their arrangement as a group, moving - as my eye sees it - from left to right. All above the dune line, which I think is important.
Brilliant image!
9/10 (no one gets 10...)
