No I was on a point at the lake front where a lot of folks go and throw bread to the gulls and I just got luck on a cloudy afternoon to get a couple of quick shots. Thanks for the comments
Beautiful composition! Overall exposure looks a little dark, but the detail you've got with f/11 is amazing at that shutter speed. (explains why it's dark). Were you out on a boat, and the gulls were tracking you? ...cause it's like we're up in teh air with them! Well done! Very amazing capture!
