When I was taking photo classes at the community college- I remember the teacher saying "no seagull pictures!". I think it was because next to the ocean here- the students were inundating him with those. But- like I said- I like yours. I took a shot of a flock of seabirds this winter which I like- but haven't tried to post it yet. I need to take the time to figure out how to send a jpeg file to the Leica gallery site.
