Yeah, Okay... this is just fantastic Steve... I don't know how you do it.
How you managed to get all of them in focus is beyond me.
Looks like it came straight out of a movie

This is a magnificent photo, pat yourself on the back. I would make it a favorite if I hadn't already.

Fabulous photo, Beach! I love everything about your composition -- the arc of the gulls, the line of the seawall, the windmill in the background. Such incredible drama! I can feel the cold salty wind on my face and hear the surf crashing and the gulls crying. Wow!
