Beautiful shot Chris - with both lighting and detail (I might have been less extensive with the crop, leaving more space above its head but assuming from the shadow of a railing perhaps, there may have been partly obscured view though anyway?)

That's a marvellous picture you've taken of this handsome gull - well done my friend.
