Hoi Rob.
Tegenlicht; dat is lastig. Ik denk dat je met curves of misschien al met levels een boel kunt verbeteren. Het zwart is behoorlijk dichtgemaakt. Te wit is altijd fataal; zwart blijkt nog structuur te hebben als je lichter maakt.

Nice perspective with the solitary bird on the structure. I have no idea what it is. What is it?

very nice shot rob.
great composition, and sharpness.

Hi Rob,

GReat photo of the sea gull taking a break. Looks like conditions where not too favourable (lighting) but you still did well!

Well done

Hi Rob,
Very nice composition with the lines of this wooden structure leading us to this resting bird with the opposing lines of the grass and the water. My only nit pick is that I would have prefered to see the focus on the bird instead of the grass in the background. otherwise an excellent photo. TFS

An intriguing composition, Rob

Hello Rob, well the gull was posing just for you! Well done on this light conditions.
But maybe the focus is soft on the wood and the gull. As I read Luc's review, it appears that the focus was set on the grass.

Well balanced composition, good space all around.

Take care, Yan :)
p.s. thx for your crit on my "Full Sail" photo. I agree with you, next time I will try to lay back on the deck to take those upward views :)

Hi Rob - Good light and details despite difficult conditions (strong backlight). Makes me want to be out there and join the bird for a rest, too. Though I'd prefer the grass along the shore. - Cheers, Cordelia :)
PS: Thank you for your reciprocal visit of Provence, 3.

Hi Rob,
Good shot despite the conditions of light.. This seagul deserved this attention! Well done! Annie

Nicely composed and the bird gives that special touch. As mentioned by others light conditions not easy to handle, but you managed.
TFS,
Vassilis

I like the composition and subjects in this photo Rob. The lighting is not at it's best but you have obtained a very nice shot all the same. Well done.
Cheers Joan

Hoi Rob
Lekkere shot. Heerlijk die eigenwijze meeuw? daar.

Difficult time to take a pic. Shadows could be improved with levels and curves, but the feel and composition is very good!
Geniet jou dag Mnr Hollander!

Geen foto's van de Rottemeren, maar wel eentje van Schoonhoven. Hier heb ik zo'n tien jaar gewoond na mijn trouwen. Een huisje vlak aan de dijk....
Over de foto, hij is op-het-randje-af scherp, goede compositie, mooi lijnen.

Groetjes Janneke
