A Rare Shot

Another rummage session through old files uncovered this humorous accidental image of a gull seemingly reacting to a swimmer.  It somehow went unnoticed at the time, but it's a true "once in a lifetime" shot.

Gull Checking Out Man Checking Out Gull

From another one of my many weekend excursions to Venice Beach.  I just happened to catch this gull as it flew by, inspecting me out of the corner of its eye.

This is one of my all-time favorite shots.  It's lovely, but also at the same time it's melancholy and poignant and saddening - because it's all about longing for the impossible.

Don't, shadow bird!  If you fly beyond the edge, you'll disappear.
