Thanks, Ken! If you had read my original upload you would have seen my remarks re the overexposure. Later, I included an additional reference defiling myself for allowing the "bloom", especially that on the Gull's head. I simply out exposed the shutter. As I responded to another critiquer, I also feel it's a slightly tight crop. This image has about come to the end of its life and, alas, will go out in its present form. ;)
