Taking flight because of a dog...not mine i hasten to add as on the lead whilst I took these shots :)
I actually fulfilled an ambition ? aspiration ? I had to get some Gulls or preferably some wading bird shots by the sea... Not to copy but emulate a poster type picture I have in my kitchen. I love the picture and won't be taking it down but all my downstairs rooms are coastal themed including my conservatory (tiny lean too but it fits an Ikea Ektorp sofa and a couple of chairs so it will do ) I got plenty of Gull shots and one very similar to what I had hoped to get but I have to say my hand holding technique isn't great and I had to shoot on continuous H to get anything sharp - where I wished it sharp that is.......
The main thing is, I DID it and enjoyed myself.
There is always something along our much maligned beach but it's close to home as I said before - plus I never saw another photographer yet in all the years we've been going so I'm more relaxed when having a go.. Sue :)
