An image taken about a year ago on the La Jolla cliffs. Juvenile gulls always make me laugh. The photo was taken with a D30 and the 100-400 mm, handheld. At the moment I can't seem to find the EXIF file. Sorry.

Monique, I am packed and ready to go, I may not look like much but I am well behaved and can grow on you like a fungus, with no cure for it!!!

Nice one, Neil. I'd say he's got my attention. What a way to start the morning. Great capture.

ROFL! "Mommy!!!" Very nicely done. Background works well to complement the bird. And a little fill flash for the catchlight too?

Great image. I like the mood that the light brings. It won't be long before the birds are looking gorgeous down there.
