Description
Another cold wintery day. I was feeding the seagulls and other waterfowl at my favorite location - the Washingtonian Center (Rio) in Gaithersburg, MD. I was waiting patiently for just that right shot of a seagull spreading its wings. My hands were cold, but I am learning how to be patient, watch, AND anticipate which helps me to focus my camera a little ahead of the subject since their wings are so large. This seagull had landed and was walking in the opposite direction. Walking with such grace. Because it was sunny and the lake was icy in parts, their were nice reflections on the water. Enjoy! Emmy Vickers,
