Description

Seagulls are plentiful this time of year here in Dubai... It makes it one of the favorite subject to shoot around these parts. (NO pun intended)
I opted to go for a stray one flying low against the two wind towers.

Very fast shutter speed + patience... and a little PP work.

Nice balance, capture and crop. I also like the frame.

Looks like you have a bit of dust on your sensor. Middle right?

Very cool moment! This one is all about trimming, so It's really nice. Andrew is right, you need to clean your sensor!

^ Thanks for the compliments guys.
and also for the heads up... cloned out the dusts for a quick fix-er-up.

Actually the dusts were inside in my 17-70 mm lens... and somewhere i can't get into. I returned that and got it cleaned... in the meantime, bought a new 18-200mm with OS. ...will post photos soon.

Cheers!!!

Good timing.

There are a few round circled things from the sunflare that I would try to remove too.

Great shot! I really love the warm colors from the sun. And I think seagulls are so pretty birds.

Great shot,, considering birds aren't the easiest of subjects to photograph. I really like the angle of the shot especially with the two wind towers in the background. Nicely Done

Very nice capture. I like the colors as well. The cut off sun flare isn't really attractive though.

nice work
but i think the angle between the bird and the buildings in the bg looks a little to extreme
