What I would call a "decisive moment" shot.
I'd prefer the white wasn't blown out, but still a keeper.

What I'm shooting is sea birds. I'm sure if they will take this kind of
bait. I'll ask around in some Norwegian forums. I have been advised to
feed
them, but nothing about how.
Seagulls will eat anything. Bread would work. You may even start a food
fight.
Other sea birds can be more picky. After bread I would try some small
fish.
Tossing some fish off of a dock can attract a crowd. The birds are more
comfortable in the water than on shore.
Here is one taken with a Takumar 55mm on Tri-X. Notice the bait fish just
off the end of the dock.
