An excellent flight shot, Axel. The blue background, contrasts very well with the colours in the gull.

Nice downstroke pose works very well with this gull. Great contrasting background and comp make for an overall terrific image.

Nice capture Axel!! I remember the first time I saw a flock of these gulls. I thought they were some kind of Tern as they fly and hunt like Terns. Well done
