Ran out into the garden when I saw the gull sat on a neighbours chimney behind a bright sun.
Deliberately underexposed to get the silhouette effect.

Adjusted levels, saturation and contrast.

Great. Very cool photo. I like the contrast between the sharp silhouette and the misty/cloudy sky. Very nice.

Oh my word!! This grabbed me from the thumbs. Perfect use of blur, subtle diagonal line, negative space and silhouette. I love it.
