Excellent sky. Think the bird was moving a little to fast for this shot - its going out of the frame and out of focus. We should tie little weights to his legs to slow him down! If you shot birds (with a camera) again, I would recommend a higher ISO or manually setting the camera a little faster. This will stop the action a little better. Problem I know is that 9 times out of 10 these things happen upon us when we aren't prepared in advance. Good luck in the challenge!

decent in-flight capture. However, the focus isn't sharp enough and you've overprocessed in post-editing (too much blue hue).

I don't care for the soft focus on the bird; I would have preferred to see the bird sharply in focus, to contrast with the fuzzy clouds. The bird's proximity to the edge of the frame leads my eyes out of the picture in the bird's direction of movement.

Unsharp. Not a very good execution of the most common shot in this challenge.

Very nice colors! I wish there was a little more detail on the flying bird. Composition looks good to me.

Really like the light coming on top of bird but the image overall has some kind of blur, pity..

Another gull in flight, there must be at least 5, including yours and mine - like the cloudy backdrop.
