Hi Aviar, this is a lovely evocative image. If possible (it may not have been) I would leave more space in front of the bird but your timing is perfect, the colours are fantastic and I love the backlit feathers. Beautifully done :)

Beautiful photograph, Aivar. I think there's a little bit too much "dead ground" behind the gull, but cropping is simple - getting the shot in the first place is the tricky bit!

Hi Aivar,
A very artistic composition. I love the quality of the light in this shot. The gold tones reflected in the water really enhance this image. Superb halo effect from the backlit gull.

An artistic work Aivar. This photo makes you feel something special. I really like the gold tones. The inflights silouhette and reflection seen are very dramatic IMHO.
Very well done.

Excellent! What a wonderful and pleasing picture. Some less space in the right and some more space in the left (in front of the bird) and it would have been absolutely perfect. The gold tones are stunning. Well done & TFS!
