27May11BBmf.jpg

Sometimes on my foreshore strolls I lugged around the "Bigma" (i.e. my Sigma 120-400mm). It is heavy
and cumbersome but it has always (in my opinion) represented exceptional value. As usual there were
seagulls everywhere, many looking distinctly overweight. There's no doubt about it. These creatures
have most definitely benefitted from the presence of humanity ... at least in terms of easy food.
