Photographer's Note
In these days this is the beginning of the winter season in Israel, the sky are becoming very interesting because of the clouds.
This picture was taken in the sunset, it was very difficult to catch the Gull with the sun in the same frame, but after some tryings, I succeeded to do this.
The colours are for real, the sky were in red tones, hope you will like it.

Beautiful compo you got, Elroyie, your patience paid off. The gull silhouette and the fireball of the sun are well placed in opposing corners of the frame, and the deep red tones of the sky are a joy to behold. Congratulations on this fine work.

Nice enough to hang on a living room wall. Very well captured with the vivid colors and the graceful flight of the bird. Nice job.

Hi Elroyie, a striking and elementary capture this is. Very atmospheric and the clouds add interest to it. Very well seen & done.

Very nice picture. I like the combination of the red sky, the yellow sky and the black bird.
