Foggy Flight

This was taken on Saturday early evening as the fog was coming in off the ocean. These gulls were scared into flight by a grooming machine that was cleaning the sand after the sun and sea worshipers had left.

I will be visiting colleges with Russell over the next few weeks so please forgive me if I don't get to visiting the photoblogs often.

Ah this is spectacular!!! I love the tones, the slight grain to it, and that mist! And the sheer number of birds it in! And the mist! Did I mention that I like the mist a lot?

This is one of my favorites Laurie. Restful, peaceful and reminds me of where we use to live.
Have fun checking out colleges . We'll see you when you return.

Laurie, the panic shows in the layers of fleeing birds. B/W is perfect for this shot.

Will miss your posts. Enjoy your time away!

Awesome shot, Laurie. The only change I would make would be to crop out all but a small strip of the beach to show only the wave, the birds and the fog.

We will be college shopping with our oldest very soon, too. It's hard to believe he's that old already.

This one is very "cinematic" Laurie. I love how they fade into the background.

Nice shot Laurie! It's beautiful how the seagulls seem to be disappearing in the fog. Works very well in B/W!

Brilliant moody shot, isn't it wonderful when all these varied elements come together to make such a compelling image.
