What a great profile portrait capture of this superbly groomed seagull, Barbara!! He/she certainly is a handsome/beautiful-looking specimen!! :o) I also like your title here...especially with all those midges/gnats buzzing around!! ;o) Congrat's on your well-deserved EP recognition for this image, too!! :o) #7989426

Thanks Carolyn - I have a lot too learn, and appreciate encouragement such as yours - when I receive an Editor's Pick I think well - "one tiny step closer to that perfect image" - I have Ann C to thank for showing me what was infront of my eyes all the time. #8018524
