This Gull was flying over my head and looking in the water for fish.. I watched it and practiced my timing. I was lucky enough to get it with a Fish in it’s beak.. I loved the reflection with the water trail behind the bird in this shot.

I agree. I had to look twice to see how the gull was oriented, but still a really memorable shot.
Thanks.
Nice pluck and grab reflection shot in sweet light.
Thanks Emil..
