Winter - 51 (Chroicocephalus genei)

Winter - 51

One more lifer ...
... as we were
moving to the
Jamnagar airport ...

... at the end of
our Gujarat trip ...

The sun was at the
Zenith and blazing ...
... making it very
difficult to handle
... whites ... against
that dark blue water
at the port ... ( ... look
at the reflection on
the bill ... shining like
an LED ... )

Still ... the image is
showing the
wing-detail
and other colors
rather well ...

Watch the detail in
a video-clip ...
