Very interesting image Mary - nicely framed. I probably would have tried to get in closer to the birds and probably a very different effect. I love the parallel lines effect though created by this view.

@Iris: Hi! Iris. This image was'nt actually taken for itself. It is an image, that i saw within an image, that i took at Findhorn Bay. This is a crop.It was really an excersise in trying to see how big i could get it. I was surprised when i could actually see the 'gulls' as they looked like dots on the actual image.

Oh! I see the plus one. Hehe. I, too, enjoy the panoramic frame. This scene lends itself really well to that treatment.

Nice composition. I like the various horizontals, with the birds creating pauses.
