Gull in Flight. Mono Lake. May 27, 2006. © Copyright G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.

Yes, fun with Photoshop. I was set up by the shore of Mono Lake, camera on the tripod and set to operate in burst mode, as hundreds of seagulls flocked nearby. I assembled this image from the half dozen frames I shot as this gull obliging crossed on a rising curve from right to left.

I’ve had relatives be less cooperative with my attempts to take their photo… ;-)
