Well captured Scott,
Excellent composition and nicely exposed. Good sharp detail and superb POV.
I do think that being in the Bahamas, you should have been relaxing on the beach sipping a cocktail, not photographing gulls!!
Thanks for posting

I really like the composition on this one too, Scott. Not only do I like the arrangement of the gulls' positions, but I also like the way each of them is a different shade of black and grey, creating an interesting visual pattern. Well done and TFS. : )

Yes, Scott, it is a good composition, the birds are nicely placed and they look like they are facing out to the water. And yes, the inflight shots aren't easy to get! I have MANY failures. Good photo, well done.
Now go have that cocktail, or two.

Nice bunch of birds Scott ;-) I like composition of this scene - they look like waiting for boat or something. Nice looking sky also. Pity about cut off tail.

Hello Scott, Fitting title..Great exposure, details and sharpness. The IS comes in handy to help you get shots you normally could not..I like the composition with the top bird the "lookout"..Well done my friend!

Scott, in my opinion, pov makes this photo. I do like it.

Maybe, I'd try to add some sharpness, but that's just an opinion.

Excellent composition showing the blue sky.

A very nice shot. Congratulations.

These black headed seagulls are very interesting, I've only ever seen ones with white heads. I love the POV in this photo and the grey blue color of the sky. The composition is lovely, very artistic, well done.

Great shot Scott! I love the POV and arrangement of the gulls. The composition is great and you did well with the exposure. My only nit is that the tail feathers have been cut off. Apart from that it's great.

I have many pictures of them robbing luckless beach goers of their food. I see little else at the beach in america. I think pollution, chemicals, hunters, kill the wonderful birds that use to be everywhere. I love sand pipers!

Hi Scott! I do not have the time to write a decent comment. I give to you the well deserved smiley.

Thank you for sharing pictures and notes and for the enjoyment which they give to me.

Have a wonderfull day!

Most awesome job on the DOF, I'm envious. My camera only goes to 9 so I can never do this. Great poses (thanks to the gulls) and wonderful composition.

TFS!
