"Eye To Eye Contact..."

Great capture, and it IS rare to get a nice "head on" shot like this.

Thanks for sharing it..

very nice Debra, I just think the horizon needs a bit of ccw rotation for better comp.

From my personal experience trying to photgraph Gulls like this, one must wonder how you might have enticed the bird to fly right at you. Perhaps you used the same tactic that I have in the past.

That is to place a container of McDonald's french fries on your head prior to taking the shot.

Sorry couldn't resist.

Again great shot

Dave ;o)
