Seagull in Flight
Panasonic DMC-G1, Konica 40mm f1.8This was taken at Pacifica Pier today. There happened to be a person there who was cutting up some fish on the pier and feeding it to the gulls. They were all hovering and flying around hoping to get a piece of the action.
An opportunity like this doesn't happen very often, and it was all over in about 10 minutes. I have some other interesting shots that I might post later.
I like this picture in particular because it shows the grace and beauty of a bird in flight.
Note the lens that I was using... my recently acquired, 20+ years old, vintage, manual focus lens.

A great shot! Wonderful detail, including the very white areas - and all with a *manual* focus lens, too.
Very nice shot. Reminds me of a picture that I took a couple of years ago with sun behind the bird. I really like how the wing tips are lit up.
