And here’s the best part: they were not shot on the Nikon 70-200mm F2.8 lens – the one that costs a bomb. I took them on my el-cheapo USD180 Nikon 18-55mm LOL.

It was an incredible sight… the flock of seagulls flying alongside our boat as it traveled back to Pier 39. They all flew so close it would had been possible to reach out and touch them. I took 111 pictures over 5 minutes, many of them just stunning close-ups of the seagulls. A small selection here.:)
