A Handsome Seagull

Posted by: Sean Kane on 02/16/2010

While shooting at Travis Marina, I found this fine seagull model.  He made sure to pose a few times for photographs.  In the end he looks quite stunning with his bright plumage and yellow eye and beak.  This is my contribution for Daily Shoot #80, a tack-sharp focus.

#ds80 – Make a “sharp” photo today any way you interpret it, either tack-sharp focus or a subject that is sharp itself.
