Gull and Moon
      #676018 - 08/07/2008 08:48

My Brother in law and I were at competition with each other to get a good gull pic in Cornwall.
I was lucky enough to get one with the moon in the shot too :-)

It looks like a nice shot but It'd be good to see a larger version or perhaps a tighter crop so we can see the gull in better detail.

Something along the lines of cropping it so the moon is more in the corner I think...

Yes, that's a much better crop Nigel and goes to show how it's not just taking the shot that counts, but the presentation as well

The single most important component of a camera is the twelve inches behind it (AA)

Depending on your views on tinkering.....

I wonder if it might look better with the gull and moon swapped in position. That way the gull would be flying into the frame rather than out and balanced by the moon in the top right which it would be flying towards....

Might work, might not!
