I was down at Huntington Beach California last January to enjoy the sunset!
Huntington Beach is a very long flat beach with a very long pier. It's a popular spot for surfers as befits it's nickname, Surf City.
I had my camera on a tripod, using my remote release to trigger images as the waves came in. Out of the corner of my eye I saw this seagull swoop in and land. The water was receded when it landed. As the water came in, so did the snacks.
Ben did another awesome job on this, and I do appreciate his help so much. One behind the scenes story I will mention, is that when Ben sent me this processed image, he shared with me a little aspect on how he processed this one. And what's so cool, is without my even saying anything to Ben ahead of time, his one technique is exactly what I would have done too. It's really awesome to have someone helping out who thinks almost exactly like I do, as dangerous as that may seem.
