Just a shot from a local park. I actually am not a big fan of seagulls, but I am amazing at the way they coast on the air currents.

Crop, rotate, adjust contrast, saturation and levels.

Nice clean image and composition - head and wing position are great and overcome blown-out tail, and hint of waterfowl in the background give a nice context.

nice. I just wish the tail wasn't saturated

Nice placement of the seagull coming into the frame. The wings form a nice diagonal. Some interest in the background with the geese but not overbearing because of the bg blur. Biggest hit you're going to take is for losing detail in the tail with the blownout whites. Good luck in the challenge.

Wonderful detail on the bird. Wind is implied - or at least air is implied!

Good bird shot, but nothing here indicates wind to me.

Excellent timing and composition. The only weakness I see is that all definition has been lost in the tail feathers. Other than that, outstanding!
