It seems to me that it has it's eye on something in particular. Probably lunch that spotted the gull first, and won't reappear for quite a while. He will have to be patient for a little while longer. Outstanding crystal clear and colorful shot, Mr. C.
Very fitting description for this photo one sitting patently for a passing fish and you did a great job captureing this scene.Stunning colours detail and compotision and love the feeling of movement in the sea and nice light too.
The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
