went down to 'our' beach in harwichport, and all the seagulls seemed to be playing games with the waves... I took a million pictures, of course only about five of them were good, lol!

This is one for the spirits. The wave is lifting. The seagull is lifting. You must be very happy to capture the take-off to flight. Wonderful colors and great detail, too!

I love how the backlighted wave shows its transparency, and am glad you "froze" the splashing wave, rather than having it be blurred.

What extraordinary colours you've captured here, Mary! This has to be one of the most unusual posts of seagulls on Caedes, a fascinating and beautiful composition.

Ah the beauty of the digital world, yes? Delete 20 keep 2! I love your image Mary, wish "my" beach wasn't 2 hours away! The color is fascinating and a great stop action shot too!

I too love the color of the wave and the gull in flight. Your narrative reminds me of one of my favorite Groucho Marx lines: "If I've told you once (as he shakes his cigar) I've told you a million time, not to exaggerate1" Just a great post. Looks like you're off and running (flying) in '08.
Very good Mary.
