Excellent shot Tanju showing clear details of the wings spread out. The background makes it even more attractive.

I agree... an excellent entry. The bokeh puts all the emphasis on the gull and the face is tack-sharp, allowing the slight blur of the wings to express motion. Best of luck, Tanju.

A lovely looking photo, Tanju. Good sharp details in the gull and lovely colours in the water. It could use some noise reduction to smooth out the noise in the background. Best of luck in the contest.

Hello Tanju,
Congratulation for this photo. Exceptional moment; perfect water; good focus, compositon, colors. My only critique goes to noise. Little noise reduction program will make this image winner of contest Simplicity.
Good luck & thanks for sharing :)
