[QUOTE=Tyger]this gull was leading a pack of gulls, i'm sure it would've made a better shot if i got all the wings. I was going for the grainy b&w look.

what'cha think?

I like it how the wings look, and you can see the details of the feathers.

New here. Trying to figure out how to post a pic, but I don't see any instructions for doing so. I'll make a guess and I'll give it a shot anyway. This is one of my favorite bird shots ever... a female Ruby-throated Hummingbird. Taken a few months back so I don't have all the settings, but I'm sure it was on shutter priority mode.

A beautiful shot Gracie, really sharp and great colours. Look forward to seeing some more.
