Wow, what a moment you've captured. It's so neatly composed and the flying birds mixed with the floating ones are perfect. Really great shot.

I also like the balance of the birds on the water with the ones in flight. Also that they are flying away from the camera.

A fine action image. The birds looks great against that subtle slate blue water.
Fine image.

I very much like the strip of birds across the frame and the bright clarity of the image and the very natural color.

Your composition of the birds and undulating water makes this almost look like an abstract shot. Well done.

It is very beautiful, you succeeded by your focus and your management of the light to propose these gulls to us. The sea is very beautiful also, and one obtains finally a photograph with a high level maritime atmosphere
Bravo ;)

There is little more chaotic than gulls gathering over water . . and, yet, thru your lens, they become perfectly choreographed and clearly understand the Rule of Thirds. Magic, no less.

This is such a superbly satisfying composition. Everything is lined up and in place, making it all feel just right. Then there's the perfect processing of those almost monochromatic tones. A really masterful work.
