CLICK / TAP PHOTO TO ENLARGE One of my all time favourite photos to be captured at sunset. A super close fly by with his gull at sunset. I love the silky water at this shutter speed.

CLICK / TAP PHOTO TO ENLARGE As with all photography - lighting is sometimes once in a lifetime. The gull made his turn and made the photo look like I am overhead as I take the photo. This is my second most loved photo of a gull that I have taken. The perfect shape of the gull as he cuts through [...]

Knowing or at least surmising when a bird will take off takes patience and judgement. Once again sunset enhances the scene. sku 70005

CLICK / TAP PHOTO TO ENLARGE Timing is everything is making that judgement as to when to press the button. The goal is to get the water splash on exit but this photo is one of my best to date. I am most proud of capturing the sunset reflection in the water during take off. sku 70006

Looking like some get or glider that is making its way around the world - the gull is master of all its surveys. sku 70011

CLICK / TAP PHOTO TO ENLARGE As with my mandarin photography - silver waters can enhance rather than degrade a photo. This water was only captured like this ONCE in thousands of photos. sku 70014
