Something a little bit different for me and something which is more on the technical side. Three shots of Seagulls in flight using a manual focus lens (M42) on the 50D. I was eating some chips by the sea with the wife and used what was left over as bait for the birds. usual, click the image for the larger on black photograph.

Nice work with the manual lens #3 is my favourite. I love how you have captured the background but have the gull tack sharp, really placing the image.

These are some of the best seagull photos I've seen, the lighting is amazing, and very natural for want of a better word. And to be taking these with a manual focus lens, kudos to you!

that first one is great, really nicely lit and no hot spots - it even made me go 'aaahh pretty seagulls' when normally my first thought is 'death to seagulls'

You have mad ethe humble seagull beautiful!

Thanks for the comments guys.
