I'm puzzled by OnePutt's comment; the head looks oversharpened to me. Have you been messing around in PS and not telling anyone?

Hi Garry,
Yes, I did apply USM in Nikon Capture. The camera's AF could not keep up with the speed of the Seaqull coming down. Yes, only a part of the Seaqull's body is in focus.
It was taken about 5pm under cloudy conditions - I could use faster shutter speed if it were brighter.
regards,
Arthur

Nice photo. The blurred motion gives it a sense of movement so don't get caught up that it wasn't too in focus

Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2005 2:22 pmGary you could be right, what I took at first glance to be out of focus could well be oversharpening.

It was ISO 200. Yeap - the focus wasn't good. I'm looking forward to more practice sessions.

Would you like to also post an unsharpened version of this?
The motion in the wings is great, and while I suspect the image may be a tad OOF, I'm not yet convinced that being OOF would be to it's detriment.
Consider this one, for instance.
Hopelessly OOF, but to me, it works.

Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2005 2:45 pmArthur - I see a an interesting shot - the head appears to be sharp to me but what I really like is the 3D effect on the leading edge of the wings - I like
