After many attempts....

...finally the gull had enough of me shooing and waving my arms to try to make it fly!
It took of and finally allowed me a lovely capture with its shadow underneath and the grass glowing in the August sun.

On my second visit to St. Andrews I properly discovered the remains of the cathedral...great sight for wonderful photos...
...reminds me a bit of Lisbon's Igreja do Carmo, although different, still similar...

St. Andrews, Kingdom of Fife, Aug. 2012

Oh, I forgot to mention it: this is for Sabine....another seagull !!!

    The shadow looks totally at odds to the overhead gull :-))
    Its a kind of magic gull trick

    Cool, mit dem Schatten noch besser! Die haben es Dir dieses Jahr ja ganz schön angetan, die fliegenden Kumpanen.
    Und soviel Sonne - davon träumen wir, am WE soll's besser werden und endlich winterlich kalt.
    Kuss, Ana

    I know why I dedicated it to you, Sabine: You managed to see something I was unaware of, that emancipating heron in the shadow!
    Must be his "Jonathan-Livingston-Seagull-"soul!

    her shadow: a heron taking off in the opposite direction – i guess it's called "emancipation" ; )))… hugs, sabine. p.s.: gulls are great! ; ))
