Well, it was taken at a park here in New York. I was taking pictures for my Photo class assigment. I was photographing animals, and although geese are very common here, i find them boring to photograph. Seagulls, on the other hand, i find slightly more fascinating. Why? They just enjoy freedom. Not the freedom of flying, but in general. They dont need to stick together with a flock, like geese do. That, plus they are amazing at decorating cars with spots of white "paint"
This was taken with a digital Rebel and the 300mm telephoto end of a zoom lens. I was about 3-4 feet from this seagull, which was patient as hell and looked at me like he was going to kick my ass any second.
What i really like about the shot is the blue highlights from the water and the warmer highlights of the afternoon sun. Level and color adjustments in photoshop.
Thank you for viewing and for leaving a thought, if you choose to do so
Interesting shot. I like how the negative space is cool colors, while the postive space are warm colors.

wow. my first thought upon seeing this was, "how'd he get a seagull to pose for him in a studio?" the lighting is really that nice. beautiful colours, too.
wow.. he looks... fake for some reason.
especially in full-view.. he looks like he's been waxed or something
cuz i was wondering, how did he get such a nice affect with the colors?
