These seagulls were a part of a much larger flock, so I had to crop down to a selection of nine of them. Unfortunately there were some birds I wanted but couldn't manipulate things to get them without getting the wrong number. It might just be that I've been looking at this too long, but I find some ambiguity. They were flying above me and the clouds are just clouds, but I can also 'see' them as frolicking over misty waves.
Crop, curves, variations, brightness/contrast, Neat Image, gaussian blur 2 pixel radius to eliminate halos. Add border, resize, stw.

Nice coincidence, but the overall shot just doesn't have any fluidity to it, or any thing that makes you look at it or draws your attention in.
