Hallo Paul,
Very difficult to photograh, technically spoken, through these whites and blacks. You even managed to capture one in flight...
Well done...

Great photo of this gull! You have managed to keep the whole bird in focus with an aperture of 3,2.... that's amazing. Seems like a great lens!

What are your views about the A700? A friend of mine is very interested.
Best regards/Bengt

Wave to Niek when you are up in Norway! : )

I like your sharp image of this gull. Exposure and saturation are good as well. I'm looking forward to pictures from the north lands.

Hi Paul
Very nice shot. Good exposure, perfect sharpness. I was wondering - maybe you could crop it a little bit more from the left and from the bottom. The only problem is small noise but Arjun did good job in his WS
Best wishes
