Black and white Seagull Photo

It’s great if we can design a photo in a way that it reflects the character of whatever or whoever we portray; it just adds more depth of expression… even though it could be understood as an interpretation. Well, each picture is an independent individual’s view – luckily so… otherwise we wouldn’t have so much amazing diversity within photographic expression.

You don’t need a major setup for such an exercise, anything around your garden or favourite hangout place can serve the purpose: here I just did a simple Black and white Seagull Photo in Kalk Bay Harbour.

The black and white seagull with a distinctive yellow beak marked with a dash of red was sitting at a distance on the greyish-blue plastic cover of a boat rocking gently in the sea. Her greyish-blue eyes observed me all the time.

If you compare the two birds you immediately spot the more aggressive one. Accordingly, and depending on what you want to express as a digital photographer, the rather placid background of the black and white Seagull Photo is more suitable here – compare it with the aggressive species HERE.
