I’ve never liked gulls, they steal your french fries when you go to the beach. Any­thing or any­one that steals your french fries — or poos on your head for that mat­ter — doesn’t deserve your respect. But, put them in a photo and you instantly think ocean. Gulls that live on the ocean are much big­ger than the lake ones I knew grow­ing up, but they are def­i­nitely the same on the inside. Bug­gers. This one at least held his pose long enough for me to take its pic­ture, so this guy is alright I guess.

Cam­era used was a Mamiya 6 with a Mamiya 75mm lens and #15 deep yel­low fil­ter. Film used was Fuji Acros 100 devel­oped in a small tank using Kodak XTOL 1+3 for 14 min­utes at 20 degrees Cel­sius. Agi­ta­tion was for the first minute, then five inver­sions every minute.

This pho­to­graph was taken at 44.258325,-66.348498 in Novem­ber, 2009 and is Copy­right 2009 Chris Jones. All rights reserved.
