I noticed you controlled the exposure much better than I. Their breast is incredibly white.
Yeh the whole photo looks a stop over to me. For some reason the camera saw the scene as dark I think and upped the exposure on you. Do you have the exif data on it? Or a link to your picasaweb album where I can view it?
He has very pale feet doesn't he?
thanks for sharing both of you!
He does. I also noticed that the beak is a different shade too. They must be cousins ;)

I got a few more but this gull had the best focus. If I could have combined the focus of this one with the exposure of my next shot I would have been bang on ;)
Well .... the exif data is interesting ...
Obviously the fstop could have been and should have been higher. Must have been a very, very bright day.Quote:
ISO: 100
Exposure: 1/1000 sec
Aperture: 4.5
I'm guessing it was an automatic setting and not a manual selection seeing as the shutter speed is so high and the aperture so wide.
I'm sure a quick play in curves would right the exposure somewhat.
They DO look like the same species don't they? Maybe yours is just damn cold!! ;)
I love the way birds always look like they are posing.
Mine was posing ... he walked up and as I raised the camera he turned 180 and then looked back ... it was like he was on a catwalk! :)
Shot 1 looks awesome on my monitor which has been dulled down after calibration (a topic that will be released as a podcast tomorrow or tuesday)
Nice capture!
