I captured this gull as it was flying by me, chased by another gull.
Texture: Yannik Hay Location: Haydon’s Park, Ottawa, On., Canada Date: 2012-04-08 Canon EOS 1D Mark IV ISO: 3200 Shutter priority: 1/1600 sec. Aperture: F/7,1 Metering Mode: Spot Lens: Canon EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM +1.4x@140mm Metering Mode: Spot Copyright: Yannik Hay Photoshop CS5 64 bits for Mac – Camera Raw 6.6
Started photography in 1975. Took photography classes. Learned black and white dark room. Did the transition to digital in 2005. Learned a few post-processing programs and made my choice to Photoshop and Lightroom.
I like to shoot wildlife, birds, macro, landscapes and street photography to name a few.
Oh great shot Yannick! Love the illumination on the gull and the way it is posed not only showcasing those wonderful wings but the delicate feet and wingtail as well!
Thank you very much Joanne for the compliment :) I was able to erase the overlaying texture by enlarging very much the image :) Have a great evening!
A Jonathan Livingston Seagull moment Yan, definitively a favorite and FIVE GOLD STARS….Jules
Many thx for the great compliment Jules. This is what I felt when I took that photo. Then I pictured the end result in my mind before doing it. Cheers :)
