Gulls in Flight, Winter Dawn

Comment by ErinM:
As a child I used to occasionally have dreams that I was really flying. The wind would just swoop me up, and off I would go with my arms outstretched, soaring along the air currents. It was the most thrilling feeling. For me, this image captures something of that sense, and I'd like to add it to my favorites so that I can look at it every so often and remember.

not shallow.. shallow means LOTS of blur that highlights the subject very clearly, usually from very close range

Great idea, but for maximum impact I'd really want all of it to be perfectly sharp. The skin texture is the key element in an image like this, but some of it is lost due to the blurry focus. But the lighting, colors, and composition are all good!
