Description
Seagulls are such fascinating creatures - one moment they walk around all innocent, enjoying their life, the next moment they scream at you or their pals because they want food or mark their territory. In this case, I walked along the Jelitkowo Beach in Gdansk, Poland, on my recent vacation when I saw a couple of seagulls on the shoreline minding their own business. Good chance for me to watch them a bit and to take lots of photographs. But suddenly my picture hunt of the gulls was over as a little kid chased them away. My first thought was: "Argh, why did you have to do that?"
But then I realized what a present the kid unwillingly made me - a full frontal picture of a seagull at take off. Life - makes you presents in the most unusual ways when you least expect them. Thank you unknown kid on the beach - I'm grateful :)
