Soaring...




ISO 200    24mm    f9.0    1/320

"For most gulls it was not flying that matters,
but eating.
For this gull, though,
it was not eating that mattered, 
but flight."
Richard Bach


This was a quick shot...
the gulls took off above me...
I grabbed my camera and didn't stop to set it any differently than it was already set...
swung it up to my eye and clicked away!!!

No telephoto...so I did a bit of cropping...
