Title: Wonderful Selfie
Post by: Ray on December 13, 2020, 08:49:19 am: The following shot was taken a few days ago at the same beach as the 'Beautiful Sea gulls'. I've deliberately cropped the lady's head to protect her identity, although I do prefer the full image. ;)

Quite right! I shouldn't have done that. I should have blurred the lady's face instead. Here's the full image, including the seagull, with lady's face blurred. :D

It's probably an iPhone 11 Pro, because research has shown that seagulls are particularly fascinated with that model. ;D

Or maybe the lady is so fascinated taking a selfie of her own bum, she is oblivious to the seagull standing on her head. ;D

Or the seagull is part of her hat?

No. I saw the seagull feasting on a slice of watermelon before it flew away to land on the lady's head. ;D

Is this really all that's left from the lady? ;D
