im not sure whether this works with its head not visible...? :)

The angle that the gull fills the frame is excellent and very eye catching. It would be nice to see the eye but not necessarily the whole head. Now the focus is put on other features of the bird which is equally well I think. I am most attracted to the nice backlit wings and the spread of the tail feathers:-)

Close your eyes and hear the birdies sing!

I like this view as is. Nothing wrong with a good game of peek-a-boo now and then (even for birds) and this puts the focus on the wingspan which works for me. Nice post! ;)

I love this shot; what an interesting moment you captured! Most folks don't really like gulls because they are such garbage pickers. But they are among the most talented fliers I've ever seen, and their cry can make you think you're near the sea. They also photograph so well (well, combined with the talent of the photographer of course!). For me it's a 10, mostly because the angle, timing, clarity and light is unusual!

It would be nicer with the head, but I'm fine without it. Great capture.

Well done. The angle and framing as well done. Captured the essence of the landing of a bird.

The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it. Psalm 37:29
i like the angle...don't mind at all that you can't see the face.
a bit unusual maybe...but thats what makes it a good shot.

You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy, at Your right hand there are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11
Amazing timing you have to capture this. Not sure if you had to crop the image, but if so good job not trying to center the bird body. I like how the head and body are very crisp but the wings just slightly blurred from the motion. Anyway, I added this to my favorites today so thank you!

i like it w/ the head obscured. it gives it mystique and the wings are powerful enough to carry the photo.

I love this shot, no head and all. You captured the moment perfectly, and the lighting is great.

We've come to the point of no return and you beg for just one more time to escape from all this madness --- Gallery.
gorgeous photo. the composition, the sharp detail on the gull's body, and motion blur on it's wings all make this photo a first class image. as for the score...ignore it. congrats on the perm status too, btw.

Please visit my website to view my online photo gallery, also look at my "watch list" for other Caedes members.
It looks to me as if the gull is about to make a tent of his wings to encase his body, thus disappearing. Lovely

Almost 6 yrs later, still holds it's own. Great shot! Didn't even realize I'd commented on this shot already. Well, guess that's just how good it is.

I think it works fine without visibility of the head...great capture...and it's nicely centred too!
Well done :)
