The Seagull and the dead fish
“talking bird” by Death Cab for Cutie [narrow stairs]
Seagulls come in droves in Essaouira. There are all kinds of gulls there, but don’t ask me what this one is exactly, I have no clue. I captured him while he was eating the head of a dead fish in the port. This is a 300 mm shot from afar, with the amazingly crisp 28-300 mm Nikon zoom lens (the lens is said to have a lot of distortion, but honestly, I never was able to spot it and besides, Lightroom does away with distortion automatically), a 1 kg bugger which does my neck each time I use it but boy! isn’t that a sharp picture? (Full EXIF here)
I'm a photographer and watercolourist. I have practiced photography since childhood and digital photography since 1995. I turned it into my main occupation in 2021. I own a photo studio in Paris, France. Antimuseum.com is both my photo blog and the website for my photography business. My public Flickr space is available at https://flickr.com/yag
