Default Spread my wings!

I was at the beach the other day with my camera. Weather wasn't great, so didn't take many landscape shots as I planned. Put my camera in high burst and randomly took some shots of seagulls circulating the sky. Sky looked grey, so I put a sepia mask over it.

Camera: Canon 30D
Lens: Tameron 18-270mm

Very nice, great capture. I tried it myself the other day and couldn't get the bird flying into the frame as you have done so subsequently had to crop drastically. Definitely looks better your way.

I set my camera on highspeed shutter burst and sort of panned the bird like you would for a car race. Also having a 18-270mm zoom range does help filling the frame with the bird.
