Default Yesterday there was a great painted seagull in the sky...

While Fishing last night and before it got dark, I tried to take a few photos of gulls in flight but came up with nothing as the boat was moving around and birds were too fast, anyway this cloud turned up so I thought Yeah that will do, close enough so grabbed a shot of it and uploaded it with no PP apart from a little sharpening, here it is...



Sea gull cloud

Thanks for viewing, cheers Steve.
