One of your best Indeed, Sury.
Bird in flight from above is a good alternative.

Re: Birds 2013
Your shots are never passe, sury. Every shot people take have value for themselves and if they choose to share them, for others. How can that be passe?
Back to your BIF. The contrast in the plumage is remarkable. Together with the sharpness of the subject and the out of focus background make the bird really pop out. The people are a nice touch. They do destract a bit however.

Re: Birds 2013
Nice one Sury - as Yildiz says, the shot from above is unsual, and I like the people in the background as it provides the often human context to how and where seagulls now live.
Nex 5, Nex 6 (IR), A7M2, A99 and a bunch of lenses.
Re: Birds 2013
Love that last shot Sury.
Here are some some far easier ones to take from my visit to the harbour yesterday. All A900 & 70-400G.

Re: Birds 2013
I agree with Greg on the last one. Great detail.
Thank you all for your encouragement. Birds have eluded me for so long that I feel
good about any small accomplishment.
With best regards,
Sury

Re: Birds 2013
Went out on a beuatiful day today. Lots of birds out and about, but I lacked the skill/drive to capture some good ones.
Only one worth posting is this Chaffinch female enjoying the early morning sun:
Shot with a580 and 70-300G handheld. f/6.3, 1/1250 sec., ISO-400, 0 EV.

Re: Birds 2013
Mark,
I would not know enough about the bird. I think the surroundings being in sharp focus is distracting
me away from the bird. May be a crop or background blur might make the Chaffinch the center of
attention.

Not the best shot in the world but just to prove that my 'big' lens really is fixed ( see repairs and servicing thread).

Re: Birds 2013
Mick,
It looks fine to me. Out of curiosity, I want to know why you think this is short of desirable.
I am trying to know your perspective more than anything else.
