Mass Chaos

[JimFox]

I was livestreaming on YouTube at Huntington Beach, California last night at sunset, but I still had my Nikon Z8 so I could take photos. I had seen a huge flock of Seagulls on the sand a little ways back from the beach. They were hunkered down, and I didn't want to disturb them. But about 30 minutes later as I was at the waters edge hundreds of seagulls started flying around so I am guessing someone decided to run through the flock and get them all up in the air. I got a few quick shots before they were gone and flying out over the Pacific Ocean.

All comments are welcome,

Jim

A scene I have seen many times out along the coast. The usual one I run into is where I am shooting the hunkered down flock feeding near a creek running across the sands and a family with squealing rug brats and barking dogs show up to chase them all up away from their feeding spot. Nice shot - almost all of them in focus.

Thanks Alan! When I was aiming, it was all happening so fast, I just focused on one and hoped for the best. So if more then 1 is in focus, then it's good to be lucky.
