Hello All,

Visited the beach today, a clear cool breezy day.

The gulls were not as agressive as they were in mid-winter.

But they did come and eat they did:

    Excellent shots.

    I checked the exif and they were all taken at 2000s (200000/100)headscratch.gif, seems
    a bit of a long exposure. Check some of your other shots and see if the
    shutter times seem ok. The twin statues gallery also has this time
    malfunction. The gates shots were ok. So it seems something happened
    around the 1st of April. Might need a camera reset or firmware reload.

    Wow, you did good!
    I think #3 is my favorite, although I chuckled over the gull and the kite! Good Catch there!

    Sunny Seagulls
    Hello Bfjr, Windoze, Allen, Dee & All,

    Glad you like the seagulls.

    Bfjr, Your remark was so funny, even my wife laughed out loud.

    Windoze, Your Cartoon is great. Can you explain how you made it?

    Allen, Here is the EXIF data of my web ready image (the first one) I uploaded to Smugmug:

    File: 040905 006_filtered.jpg
    File size: 91KB
    Camera Model: DSC-F828
    Firmware: Adobe Photoshop CS Windows
    Date/Time: 2005:04:09 16:16:36
    Shutter speed: 1/500 sec
    Aperture: 6.3
    Exposure mode: Tv
    Flash: On
    Metering mode: Center-weighted average
    ISO: 64
    Focal length: 38.1mm
    Image size: 1000 x 666
    Rotation: none
    White balance: Auto
    Saturation: Normal
    Sharpness: Normal
    Contrast: Normal
    Color profile: IEC 61966-2.1 Default RGB colour space - sRGB

    Perhaps there is a problem with Smugmug's processng the EXIF data.
    Of course, SmugMug is simply fantastic in its speed, I am on dial up, and have no problem viewing my images.

    Thanks for the information, Glad you liked the Gates.


    Dee, I like that one too. The gull appears to me to be floating and gazing right at my camera (or me), but all with a very cool, calm air about him.


    It was alot of fun.

    Regards, Nicholas
