Was at a local northern California lake with the intention of "practicing" my
photo panning. Quite a few Sea Gulls frequent said lake, but only in the winter. Must be
the storms at sea that encourages them to move inland. This lake is surrounded with
french fry munching folks, who bring their drive-through lunches and check out the bird
life.
Happened to get this as it passed a darkened shadow area background. Was dark
enough that it didn't take much shopping to produce the one you see.
I included, perhaps, a little more black background than necessary, but I
wanted to make it a more significant part of the scene for whatever impact it
might have. Bumps the emotion a tad for me.
