Image taken during the golden hour. I spooked the birds during the shoot. This image was taken with the camera on a tripod, using the Cactus V5 radiopopper as a remote. I had to backup some 200 meters before the seagulls started swarming around the tractor again.

Finally, I can use my macro lens underwater, and the results are quite impressive. Handling the lens is a bit difficult, as the magnification is 1,5:1 (1:1 macro lens + the effect of a flat port).

I need more practice....
